Today, myself along with the rest of the journalism workshop members went to the Herald-Dispatch center in Huntington West Virginia. We were shown how newspapers were created and was given a tour of the building.
Later in the evening we were given a chance to experience what it is like to be a newsnpaper reporter. My group went to the local pool to get the scoop on the vandalization of the newly upgraded pool. Members of the community were helping as much as they could to get the pool back into working conditions. The pool was reopened this afternoon.
Later through out the day we proceeded to our second reporting location which was the home of an owner of pet monkeys. A law was passed that no exotic animals can be owned in West Virginia so, she has decided to move out of the state and she refused to be interviewed.
Since today is my last full day here at Marshall University I would just like to thank the professors for the amazing lessons and lectures and a special thanks to the counselors for putting up with us and for pushing us to blog, tweet, ask questions, and take notes.
