News Story
A professional athlete, a reality television star, a single mother… This season they all have something in common; Dancing with the Stars. Everybody has their favorite star and dancer duo.
“I would have to say my favorite right now is Jennifer Grey and Derek Hough because she's old like me and Dirty Dancing is my all time favorite movie.”
“My favorite is Kurt Warner [and Anna] because he's a pro football player, he's an all around nice guy and he is completely out of his comfort zone.”
With season eleven just beginning, many fans still feel that previous stars deserved the trophy more than others.
“I think that Mario Lopez was [most] deserving because he was the best dancer of his season, but he didn't have that fan base supporting him and voting.”
“Leila Ali was most deserving because she worked really hard and proved her feminine side, that I didn't know she had, because she's a boxer.”
In a fantasy world, we could all be dancing across the stage with our professional partners. The stars don’t get their pick, but if we did…
“I would want to be partnered with Derek Hough because his choreography and technique is amazing.”
“I would love to be partnered with Julianne Hough, because she's the best.”
“I would have to choose Maks, because he is really hot (laughing) and he's very straight forward when he's teaching his partners and I just think he is good at teaching.”
Keep watching this season of Dancing with the Stars, and if you’re daring enough, grab your dance shoes and start rehearsing on your own.

News Notes
Define “Broadcast Journalism” in 1-3 sentences.
Delivering or sharing current events that are news worthy via the internet, television or radio.
List and describe the six criteria of newsworthiness.
TITLE DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
1. Timeliness: We care about things that just happened or are happening now. (Examples: Traffic, weather.)
2. Significance: The more the significant, the more people it effects. (Examples: 9/11, natural disasters, Presidental Elections.)
3. Prominence: People. We care about "important" (celebrities) people. (Examples: Britney Spears shaved her head, Speidi.)
4. Unusualness: Things that aren't "the norm" are news worthy. Commonly bad things. Man bites dog. (Examples: plane crash, murder, hurricane.)
5. Proximity: We care about things that are close to us. Local news. (Examples: sports, police reports.)
6. Human Interest: Feel good news stories just for positivity. (Examples: panda, Tyler Cropsey, saving a life.)
What are the differences between print journalism and broadcast journalism?
1. Broadcast journalism is more current and up to date. Live information.
2. Print journalism allows the reader to decide what news they want to read.
3. Print journalism has more space for detail to tell a story.
4. Broadcast journalism allows you to be more descriptive through video and audio.
How is the Internet impacting broadcast journalism?
