10/24/2010 In-Class Assignment

For my final project, I plan on including writing out my script in a blog, and include links to the website of the organization and related topics.

My focus is on Stonewall Columbus, the GLBT organization group for Central Ohio. An example of related links would be other gay organizations groups, like the New York Times offered for their story on Obama's health plan.
I like that the New York Times provides related topics for its readers. The more information readers get the better understanding they will have.
I do not like that the related links were links to other articles in the newspaper. Links to other sources of information provide a different perspective which should be welcomed.

Pictures of members of the organization, the building of Stonewall, and past events will be included in my blog. The pictures will either be included in the video or somewhere throughout the script. An example of having pictures in the video comes from ESPN.com's segment of Ladainian Tomlinson being released from the Chargers
The picture provided in the video is a graph of Tomlinson's production. It was important because it gave an idea of how he has declined over years.
I thought more pictures of what he did for the San Diego community or even on the field would have gave more of an idea of how vital he is/was to San Diego.

The video will be of the interviews I conduct. Obama's health plan article on CNN.com provides two videos, one of his the White House press secretary and the other of CNN analysts giving their opinion on Obama's plan.
I thought it would have been better to have a video of a Republican figure who opposes the bill and why he opposes it.
