UMASS Boston & Boston Globe Media Matters Conference


The event at the university was the "Media Matters" where students from different schools took lectures on journalism. My first one was on Sports and Entertainment Broadcasting. Most of it was on learning to host your own show and being a correct reporter, meaning that intonation and improvisation are a huge part of it. However, I was more interested in my second class that was called Investigative Journalism. I could relate to it more because the lecturer talked not only about theory, but actual investigations. There are many websites that can be used for investigations and these will help your story. In general, it was very interesting and included many students coming from other places.
