As we discussed in class, you will produce three budget lines for stories you want to do this fall at your school. The budget lines will include a list of five specific sources for the story, as well as a sidebar idea. It should look like this:
SOTOMAYOR HEARING: Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s Supreme Court hearings began on Capitol Hill today. We look at her judicial record. HENSON, 25 inches, photo of Sotomayor at hearing; timeline of her career; bio box
Sources:
- Testimony from Senators
- Testimony from Sotomayor
- Former clerk
- Fellow judge
- Senate Judiciary Committee Chair
SIDEBAR: Latinos on the bench — Other prominent Latino/Latina judges in the United States.
Your budget lines are due (typed up and printed out) at our first small group session Tuesday.
