Cool New Publishing Tools - 106 views

I thought this article was outstanding. The add ons and all the new technology really made it more interesting. The videos made it seem extremely real. After I read it I told my dad we should get g...

Getting it First vs. Getting it Right - 98 views

As someone who worked on editing the story and making the call to go ahead and publish it despite knowing that the situation was still changing, I think situations like this can be really tricky bu...

"Impartial" journalism: Are we kidding ourselves? (1st and 2nd HW, 10.29) - 81 views

I land somewhere in the middle of this argument. I believe that impartiality should remain a focus of good news writing but that news also has a lot that it could learn from the opinion and column ...

TAs Cheat at Redwood - 81 views

This is interesting - I'm glad they published it, but I agree with the people who say they could have gone deeper. I say this because it doesn't go into the role of TA's much - how many students a...

Media coverage influencing shootings? - 20 views

I think that media coverage plays an extremely important part in the public's perception of events. While I think that the Boston bombings have been covered fairly well overall, news stations have ...

Transgender child's use of school bathrooms in disucussion - 53 views

This is a very interesting topic, and was covered well; as soon as I was reading it and wondering to myself how it was possible for Coy to identify herself as female so early in her life, the story...

Rape Culture at Paly High - 46 views

This article was very well done. It was interesting (and horrible) to read about the after-effects of rape. Like Jordan said, it would have been interesting to hear quotes from Tina's peers, becaus...

High Schools Gay "Cutest Couple" - 27 views

I agree with devon^. If there is a gay couple that is the cutest and they win the vote then that would a great step forawrd for our school, however we shouldnt just hand the "award" to a gay couple...

What Not to do on Your Friends Next Birthday - 21 views

I agree with Aaron that the NYT wasn't giving free publicity to the pranksters of the world. The reporter, J. David Goodman, provided detailed coverage by speaking with the New York City Police Dep...

"My Daughter's Homework is Killing Me" - 53 views

The writer was able to maintain a light voice which I think aided getting his point across. As a lot of people have noted, this article is amusing. However while being amused the writer was able to...

Opinion: The damaging messages of proms - 21 views

While reading this article, I kept thinking back to prom last year. Some of the things in the article applied to me, but others didn't. Then I realized though that prom is different for everyone, e...

Photo Essay: "The People You Meet at McDonald's" - 24 views

I really liked this idea, and found it very captivating, however it would have been interesting to be able to read a little bit about these people along with the pictures. It would be interesting t...

New Virus is "A Threat to the Entire World" - 11 views

I'd agree with Veronica about news organizations today. They intentionally blow things out of proportion, because bigger catastrophes get bigger ratings. So does quickness; sometimes this, as we've...

Racially Segregated Prom, Georgia - 52 views

I agree with Sonja, in that I found similarities between this story and the Tam Indian feature. The reason this segregated prom has gone on for so long is because of an illogical "reverence" for ...

Axe Throwing Granny and Reporting on Reporting - 4 views

Interesting combination of reporting on something that actually happened and sensationalizing it for viewership. It would be interesting for us to try some balance of this-opinions on news stories ...

Long form interactive journalism - 23 views

The graphics in this piece were neat enough to keep it interesting, adding rather than distracting from the story itself. I think this brings up an important balance to keep in mind in terms of mor...

Travel Article on Marin - 30 views

I feel like it missed the part of Marin that are neocons. Marin is a bit more different than you would think.

A Moment From the Boston Marathon, Audio and Stories - 8 views

  •  
    Here's another NY Times Multimedia Article that is somewhat similar to the one we looked at in class. Is it possible to do something similar to this? How effective do you think it was?
  •  
    This layout is incredible. The time in the beginning caught my eye immediately and the interactive image was engaging. Having audio online would be awesome. I was having trouble loading it but I heard a story and it was so much more engaging to hear her voice and emotion rather than read it. The description is more vivid and listening to a primary source like this has such an impact, especially for a story of this magnitude.
  •  
    The fact that the image had the runners named and then zoomed in with the profiles and soundbites made the tragic event that much more emotional. Just the shots of the participates alone brought a lot of empathy to the article and I thought that the recordings involved were a nice touch. The loading speed was a little slow but the visually and emotionally capturing content was definitely well worth the wait.
