    This course is an introduction to the study of the practice of radio news and podcast production and operations. Emphasis is placed on students gaining practical experience in a studio setting using a convergence model in which students collaborate with other student media on campus. Topics include operating all aspects of the student-produced radio and podcast platforms, on-air performance skills, scheduling, the programming formula, the clock, station image, format selection, ratings, and research. Legal and ethical issues in news media, including the implications of social and cultural constructs, economics, technology, and equity and social justice, are explored. This course is designed for students pursuing media-related majors and anyone interested in media-related industries.
