Evidence:

​

This internship allowed me to see different perspectives from all positions within the EWNs department. I was able to shadow various reporters, anchors, and other people within the news department while they’re in the process of compiling their stories and watching them live in action. I have a better understanding of the hard work and dedication everyone puts into this particular business. I was also able to receive recommendations from news anchor Bill Ritter, El Tiempo anchor/reporter Joe Torres, 7 On Your Side reporter Nina Pineda, and Assignment Desk Editor Brian McLaughlin.  Include in my portfolio are snap shots of my scripts I wrote as well as informational links of reporters stand ups that I used to guide me through writing my scripts.
