Sometimes just going to class and having lecture can become a dreaded routine for college students. Those days where we can just step away for a moment and hear first hand what people in the industry deal with can become more valuable than just reading from a book. Lyne Pitts, television news journalist and now managing editor for The Root, visited the class in September. Our Broadcast Journalism II class also had the pleasure of meeting Anna-Lysa Gayle, Ashley Pulliam and Emmy Vicor, recent Howard graduates now pursuing their careers in the field. During the visit with Lyne Pitts, she gave some valuable information on the importance of being a good communicator and building relationships in this line of work. Aside from this, one of the things she said that mostly resonated with me was that hard work will get you there, but relationships get you further.

Actually being here now all I focus on is the struggle that I go through daily, but actually hearing that it was all meaningful assures me that everything I’m going through has a purpose. Ashley Pulliam shared with the class troubles she has encountered at her work place being a black, educated, female in this industry. There’s going to be people out there that try to put you down just because of who they assume you are. Having thick skin is going to get you through it all.

These words of wisdom our guest speakers have given us so far have really meant a lot to someone like me who is trying to get her start in the industry. Being able to take the things I learn in the classroom and apply them to the newsroom will make me an asset, as people will see the greatness in me. These guests are awesome, keep them

In the memoir, The Glass Castle, Jeannette Walls, the author, was most influenced by her time in Phoenix, as indicated by how she describes the living situation in her grandma's old house with the money, and the time they had to tie her dad down because he was going delusional. It is evident throughout the story that living in Phoenix had a great impact on Jeannette Walls, She had spent more time there than any other place and she even came back after leaving. The first time was just to visit Grandma Smith, but the second time they came back to stay for awhile in Grandma Smith’s old house. The family’s time in Phoenix is described mainly about the house there and what happened in or around that house.
However, I have come to terms with the fact that all I have is my story and even though it may not be the saddest or dramatic, what is important is, it is my own and I know how difficult it has been for me to overcome the obstacles in my life. Being a black woman I have learned early on that I need to work twice as hard in order to be taken seriously, and there are certain obstacles that I will face because I am a woman as well as the fact that I am black that many others do not face.

American journalist and politician, Clare Boothe Luce, in her opening speech at the 1960 Women’s National Press Club meeting, prepares her audience, qualifying and defending her forthcoming criticism. Luce’s purpose is to provoke thought in the journalist’s minds on what journalism is really about at its core. She adopts a frank and humorous tone to best capture the attention of her intended audience of female journalists. Through, appealing to the ethos, logos, and pathos with flattery, syllogism, and rhetorical questioning to prepare the audience for her message: “the tendency of the American press to sacrifice journalistic integrity in favor of the perceived public demand for sensationalist stories.” In the first paragraph of her speech, Luce assures the audience that “[she is] happy and flattered to be a guest of honor…”
Clare Boothe Luce stands in front of an audience at the Women's National Press Club in 1960 to deliver a speech about the issues and successes of the American Press. She realizes that what she has to say may not be well received by her audience because they are the journalists of the American press, so she addresses them with an introduction that purposefully prepares them for her criticism. Luce uses a kind, humorous tone to balance out her harsh message, makes herself seem credible by giving her audience compliments throughout, and she redirects the idea of journalism in a way that appeals to her audience emotionally. Luce's introduction begins with an immediate shift in tone from being delightful to being harsh and getting down to business.
Hi Nicole! I had the opportunity to watch Glen Weybright too, but with a different client, Mia. Glen is an outstanding clinician, as he is able to truly connect with his clients and make them feel very comfortable. He has become one of my favorite clinician’s to watch on MCN. It’s interesting that you bring up that the boy’s family was involved in the session because Mia had her mom participating in her session too.
This week in my LDR 101 class, I gained the knowledge of Womanhouse. I enjoyed learning about the enlightenment of sisterhood and the foundation of Womanhouse. On Tuesday, Professor Katherine separated the students into groups. Within the group, each person had to read a different article. In my article, the speaker expressed her personal feelings and the challenges that the group faced when they reconstructed the house.
However, I also follow many journalists or people whom I look up to in my career field. Additionally, when they speak about different subjects that are inherently necessary thus gives me an outlook on ways I can enhance my skills while accommodating the traits they possess that makes them outstanding in their field. Another vital aspect of having in journalism is to uphold journalism ethics journalist are faced many challenges when they come across people who sometimes make inflammatory remarks thus allowing a reporter to respond in a way that does not go along with the ethics of journalism. Solely the reason why I practice being a great listener and learning to accept opinions of others that do not correlate with mine necessarily perpetuates a way for me to respond appropriately and respectively. Furthermore, doing more research on my future career field, I discovered that journalist deal with an overwhelming amount of stress and receiving my assessment results I know that stress control is something that I need to work on within myself to lead
Cerebrating about the topic, I cannot avail but cerebrate about my current work I do with my Pawpaw. Often when I come to work for him, it becomes pellucid that I misunderstand him and his co-ascendant figure. They bark out orders obscure and expect you to read their mind and when you do not do the job right they act like they told you in full detail what needed to be done. One example I have is back about months ago, Buck, my co-ascendant figure, wanted me to take a tractor with an affixed bush hog and go cut grass. He authoritatively mandated me to cut the conventional fields and hurriedly left afore I could ask which fields he betokened.
The rapid increase in the programs and websites has also inclined the rivalry among different channels for targeted audience and advertisement companies. In line, to raise the competition and rivalry, the demand for economic content is increased (e.g. latest celebrity gossip, their love-life, trendiness and new fashions in the industry) in order to complete the flourishing quantity of broadcasting time. An English lecturer at the New Jersey College, Ewing; David Blake said that “the media has completely modified the individuals’ experience about celebrity culture than the development in any other culture.” He further added that “Both social and broadcasting Media has made the celebrities more pervasive and dominant in prevailing society and this upsurge has created a completely new sector of public relations.
