Tiger Woods

Fan: As a fan i believe the apology message by Tiger was very sincere. He addressed what he did and made many coments that show he is trying to take steps in the right direction. He is entering rehab again and working on his personal life which i believe is by far the most important right now.

Reporter: A a reporter i would believe he did a good job of addressing his problems head on. He clearly stated what he did and has proved that he will only be working on his personal life until he feels it is secure. I am a little dissappointed he will not be opening up to the public but he never has so that isn't much change. I thought it was very respectful to tell reporters to stay away from his children, wife, and mother.

Newspaper Closings

Newspaper sales are falling drastically. Many large cities, including Minneapolis, may lose their daily newspaper due to falling rates. Newspapers earn 80% of their earnings from advertisement. That number is slowly dropping due to companies putting their money into TV and internet.

USA Today

I read an article on Groundhound Day and how the groundhogs projected another 6 weeks of winter. This method really doesn't make any sense to me because if he sees his shadow that means it is sunny out. Usually sun is incorporated with spring and summer and not winter. If he does not see his shadow that means it is cloudy out which is more incorporated with winter than spring or summer. I think we should base the length of winter off of scientific facts and data rather than hibernated animals. It is however a tradition and people around the world celbrate this day and wait for the groundhogs reaction.

Interview

I interviewed Kelsey Retherford. She is taking Introduction to Broadcast Journalism because this class qualified as a speaking credit which she needs in order to graduate. She is involved in cheerleading at Northern Elite. In the summer she works at the Apple Valley aquatic center and earns pretty good pay because it is a city job. She is unique because she travels a lot. Her dad works for Delta and she flies all over the world. She has been to 5 different countries.
