In this month's episode we focused on determining what is Newsworthy. When journalists talk about what’s newsworthy, they consider topics such as trends, timeliness, proximity, conflict, controversy, Human interest, and Relevance when deciding if a story is newsworthy. When an editor needs to decide whether to run with a particular story, they will ask how well the story meets each of these criteria. Anchored by Tyler Hawkins '20, and Matt Bonsignore '20.
