I truly believe that you can’t have an entire newscast full of bad news…there needs to be a balance. Show viewers that there are good people out there doing great things and that all is not lost.
As a journalist and storyteller it’s important to find these stories, but you must tell them in a unique way so they can stand out in the midst of an hour long newscast. Use of music and/or natural sound is imperative to suck the viewer into the story and to keep their attention.
