    Description
    This course is the third in a series of journalism and media production workshops in broadcast news. Emphasis is placed on not only creating content, but supervising a newsroom and television studio using a convergence model in which students collaborate with other student media on campus to produce a wide range of multimedia journalism samples. Topics include effective leadership in a newsroom and studio, establishing newswriting and video standards, ensuring deadline adherence, maintaining continuity of broadcast quality, and communicating team goals clearly. 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.
