What a class??!!!

Well, needless to say, this was the best class of the year so far. When Costas was speaking, I was so in awe, I felt like I was watching him on t.v. It was very surreal. He was genuinely a nice guy and it was humanizing to hear his stories about S.U., especially about the fire in Flint. For some reason, I felt like he never did anything wrong, but this made him much more real to me. I really enjoyed Weisbaum and Cohen as well. Weisbaum I think actually gave the most advice of the three as he talked about the changing of media and his persistance with investigative stories. He also talked about how he helps people with his journalism. This really hit home for me because I have been sturggling with my decision to try to be a sports broadcaster because it doesn't really help people. I also enjoyed when Cohen talked about how he reinvented his career and took multiple paths. Overall, like the professor said, we had a semesters worth of visitors in one day.
