Radio

So I’ve done some radio work and l freaking love it. It’s more than an excuse to talk… it’s a chance to report useful information and share. It’s the original user-generated content, if you think about it. And for that, I love the medium.

I’m in the process of deciding if I should find time to prusue more radio work… actually, podcasting. Please take a listen to my pieces and give me your feedback — or job leads, collaborations and the like! 😉

Disabled But Able, 04:41
For the disabled, the weakened economy has lead to layoffs, rejection and difficulty achieving or maintaining independence. Centers like the one in Queens are working to help the disabled use their time as unemployed workers to become better skilled and more competitive job seekers through education and support.

This was my dream at one point. And now, here it is. My reporting demo reel.

It was all shot when I was working as a reporter for Columbia News Tonight as a student of Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. That was the spring of 2004, and since then I have either not pursued the right opportunities to report on-air again, or suck so badly that I can’t get a gig working at it full-time.

You be the judge.

Rev. Al Sharpton Rally (01:30)

Intro: One contender who is still in the running is New York native Reverend Al Sharpton. He took to the pulpit in Harlem this afternoon to back a union locked in a contract battle with the city and to bolster his campaign for the democratic nomination. As Jennifer Neeley reports, even the workers skeptical of his motives were taken by the man they call “The Rev.”
