Multimedia Reporting Fall 2020

Radio Pitch

For my radio story, I’d like to cover how people my age are feeling about the upcoming election. It’s Gen Z’s first opportunity to vote so I think people would have interesting things to say. I’d ask people how they’ve been keeping up with the race,  get general opinions on the country’s current state, and find out if they really believe that voting is important. I’d also ask them about their opinions about talking politics on social media, and the stunts celebrities have been pulling to encourage people to vote because social media has been influential to a majority of us. I’d try to have a group discussion on Zoom, but that I might have difficulty finding conservative people and preventing the conversation from turning into a debate.
