Interviews all around
This has been a crazy week of interviews!! I had a few long-formats to do, a phoner, and an in the studio interview to do for this week's County Close-Up. I really like doing that, by the way. This week's guest was Political Writer for the Sharon-Herald Jeff Greenburg. We talked about candidates, election issues, The League of Women Voters, and Bob Robbins and last year's hot issue: the pay raise. He was a great interview! It went really well. I'm very interested in all the "political stuff", and am thinking about doing a story on Election Day. :)
As for the phone interview, I would like to talk to Dan Vogler (Lawrence County Commissioner and WC Alum) about what he does now and also a little bit about what he did while at Westminster. I'm also planning to make an appointment with Jennifer Moreau at FSN for my other Alumni interview next week.
Hopefully my interview with Jeff Greenburg will make it on the web before Election Day, because he had a lot of good information. I think he has the coolest job--talking to all the candidate's and then writing about it. I would love to do something like that someday.
I'm also doing the interview segment for TCL next week so I need to start thinking about potential people to talk to. I'd still like to interview Dr. Swerdlow about his new cluster involving language and community service.
Danielle and I airchecked and analyzed our newscast (which was filled with good sound...including a wrap) so that went well. I'd like to send one down to Marshall Adams at KDKA for some feedback soon.
Pem and Em in the AM is going strong...even though this week was a downer with Bob Barker retiring :( and Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon breaking up. I love our show though...we play off of each other well and I think it ends up being pretty funny (at least to us!!)
On a sports note, only 2 more football games to broadcast!!! Not that I don't like doing it, but I'm excited to have my weekends back to work on some other things :)
As always, I have about 101 I want to do...I don't even know how I remember it all.

Aims, while this first part has nothing to do with your entry, this was the only way I could think to get to you. What you said about me being strong was just what I needed to hear today - especially from someone I care a great deal about. It's been a rough couple of months and sometimes a surprise hi from a friend is better than anything else (except maybe a hug from Levi ;) - thank you for that.
Wow - its amazing to see all the work you are doing at the school! I miss it so much! Ahh ... to be back in the broadcasting swing of things ... but I've got a job out there for me somewhere and maybe you'll be interviewing me on ABC or FOX or CNN someday ... about what I don't know but its a thought ;)
I can't wait to see you all again and your comment brightened my day more than you can know

The Greenberg interview was the best of the semester!
The Vogler interview revealed some good NEWS items. Great question there about his political future-- he gave you a great response...turned into a great bite for radio, too.
FYI- I found a picture of him in college. Remind me to send it to you.
