Interns Takeover Atlanta Newscast
I have told countless J-School students that they will learn more in a Summer Internship than they will in 4 years years of college.
The interns at WSB in Atlanta got a treat...the station let the Interns record an entire newscast and the whole thing was done by the students.
Producing, Directing and the Talent were all Interns and while there were some stumbles here and there, the kids did a good job with their mock newscast.
The newscast did not make it on air, it will live on the Internet forever.
Take some time to watch the kids that will likely one day replace you:
