Local News

A got to be interviewed on the big city news channel up in Burlington, and it was pretty cool to see. This wasn't simply some local cable access station, this was the real deal news station. They are promoting a program on the local cable access and it was a big enough to deal warrant a news story. A and another student headed up with BF and they were broadcast on the prime time news. A said it was cool seeing how the news stations operate, and she did very well in her interview. She was poised and relaxed and did a fine job, objectively speaking, of course. Afterward she got to eat at Five Guys burgers, so it was a win-win situation. I think it's a cool opportunity for a kid to not only see the behind-the-scene workings of a news station, which is probably pretty interesting, but to also get to be on TV.

We couldn't catch the broadcast in real-time but we were able to see it on their website afterward, and it was pretty cool. I tried sending the link out to various family members with varying degrees of success, but I think we can remedy the situation in the near future. We shall see.

Until then, thanks for reading, and thanks to Adam Clark for the pic.
