In response to Inna's blog on journalism

I also was surprised to find out that the majority of reporters don't write their stories. I really did think that finding the story was the main part and then taking your story and telling it on the news. However, as we found out in class, often times their are other people writing the stories and then the reporters are checking the information for credibility. That is how I understood it.

I think that the hardest part about putting on a news show is deciding what stories to air and not to air. Ethics play a huge role in making these decisions but sometimes it doesn't always have the best outcome. The tough part is that there are always many factors. Having to decide whether or not to air a murder or something and having to think and talk to the family would be hard.
