Working KOMU.COM February 10, 2009

This was another step forward in web knowledge for me. Amanda and I made another slideshow and set up stories for our reporters as we did last week. On the links and numbers page, I added links to a story about Autism and also to our slideshow. An important lesson I learned is to make sure franchise stories are new before working on them. I spent at least 15 minutes on a school report story only to find out it was a re-run. So, I wont be making that mistake again.

This week has been an eye opener for the job search. I joined TVJobs and saw a whopping 15 sports opening. It shouldn't be a surprise, all journalists at this school know sports has to re-create itself. Which is why I'm so glad to be taking this class. The added web knowledge can only help in an interview with a news director. Who knows how everything will work out, but at the moment, I still think at some point next year, I could be at a local television station talking about sports. Well, we'll just have to see wont we.
