For Thursday

"News Corporation, today, reaches people at home and at work... when they're thinking... when they're laughing... and when they are making choices that have enormous impact. The unique potential.. and duty.. of a media company are to help its audiences connect to the issues that define our time."
--Rupert Murdoch


For Thursday, April 17: We will spend the first part of class doing a writing exercise. The second half of class will be dedicated to meeting in your groups to discuss your ethics case studies and upcoming presentations.

Upcoming Deadlines:
Tuesday: April 22--Group Presentations on Ethics Cases-these should be 8- 10 minutes long.
Thursday: April 24--Finish Group Presentations. Individual papers on ethics cases due.


Extra Credit Opportunity! Write a news story appropriate for The Echo based on a WCSU event. There are numerous events coming up; they are listed on the website. You must attend the event and conduct appropriate interview(s), similar to the class assignment you just completed. However, this article should be short and sweet-no more than 300 words. This is worth a potential 30 points, plus 5 points additional if submitted.
