For Class Tuesday, March 28th

I'll be presenting to the Utah Association of Chiefs of Police so I will not be meeting with you in class. Be sure to get your large market TELEVISION news research post up on your blog.

I've received five blogs shown at right. If yours isn't one of them, I haven't received your URL. Without your URL, I won't be able to grade your post nor any of your video clips posted for the field production assignment.

It would be best to post your assignments in English as well.
