Students at 蜜柚视频 took to the airwaves to join the national conversation during the presidential election Nov. 5.
Students in Professor Darren Sweeney鈥檚 Newscast Practicum class presented a half-hour news cast that they wrote and produced in advance of election night. With support from Introduction to Broadcast students, the program was filmed in the university鈥檚 Media Center television studio and aired live on YouTube. Watch it here!
Sweeney says the presidential election presents a particularly meaningful education opportunity to students who are learning to assess and present facts clearly in front of a live audience.
鈥淒oing a live broadcast for the presidential election is a fantastic opportunity for our students to hone their craft,鈥 Sweeney says. 鈥淚t will get them reporting on what is shaping up to be one of the most important elections we have ever seen.鈥
