Business reporting meeting

Monday, November 24th, 2008

Join SPJ for it’s last official meeting of the semester the day before Thanksgiving. Reporting on buisiness topics is somewhat different than reporting general news. With the struggling economy, find out from two people in the field who know a lot about this topic:

- Eric Wieffering
Business Editor, Star Tribune

- Mark Reilly
Managing Editor, Minneapolis-St. Paul Business Journal

Hope to see you there!

Campaign coverage meeting

Monday, November 10th, 2008

Join SPJ this Wednesday from 10-11 to discuss the historic outcomes of this past election. With the Senate recount, the new President and high voter turnout, how did the media cover it without turning people off?

Panelists include:

Eric Black from Minnpost

Maria Douglas Reeve team leader of the politics section for the Pioneer Press

Mike Mulcahy from Minnesota Public Radio

Should be a very interesting meeting!

NOTE ROOM CHANGE: AMUNDSON HALL 116 (ACROSS THE STREET FROM MURPHY)
