The News: The Process Behind the Presentation

1998
What does a journalist do? What happens behind the scenes before we get today's news? This site tracks three media formats: online, broadcast, and print news and follows the process each uses to prepare its reports. Interviews with news personalities--online writer Alexandra Pollya, TV reporter Diane Sawyer, and Los Angeles Times reporter Sean Macaulay--provide a first-hand look at what a career in each medium is like.
