    Please list five stories that you feel are most newsworthy for our first broadcast. Remember to keep the visual elements and your audience in mind. If there is a story from over the weekend that you feel we should cover (check out the ones I bookmarked), you may include that as well.
    Briefly explain your five choices.

    I think that the best stories are: the seatbelt story, the kindergartener ABC story, the google music subscription service, the boys lacrosse story, the duck story and the venezuela toilet paper story. We should also check back on monday because some stuff might happen over the weekend that would be good/better to report on this week!!!

    Pa. power plant spewing pollution into N.J. to stop burning coal next year
    U.S. soldier sentenced to life in prison for killing comrades in Iraq
    Kindergartner helps save dad's life by knowing his ABCs
    'The Office' ends its 8-year run
    Venezuela to 'saturate the market' with 50 million rolls of imported toilet paper
    I think these are the most newsworthy because there are local ones, an international one, one on the war, and the office which is a good story that a lot of people know about.

    *Boys Lacrosse
    o I like this story and I think that most people would be interested in hearing about the Lacrosse team
    *Homophobia Toll
    o This story is interesting and I think it would definitely resonate something in our viewers.
    *Candice Glover
    o It is a fun and feel good story. I am sure many students watch American idol and would enjoy hearing a little about-not to mention it would work really well as a kicker.
    *Kindergartener saving his father
    o I love this story-it is so sweet and such a feel good story. It is also a great story that the story took place in New Jersey.
    *Yahoo buying Tumblr
    o Many students use tumblr and I think they would be really interested in hearing about news related to something that pertains to their everyday lives.

    I think these stories should be used: boys lacrosse, seat belts, kindergartner saves dad, Venezuela imported toilet paper, and homophobia.
    I think these stories would be the most interesting to teens, and we would have a good variety of stories if we used them.
