I loved being the producer yesterday. At first, it was overwhelming because I can be pretty indecisive, and I had a hard time picking stories, but it all came together. Gino came back later on in the class period, but Matt and Andrew did a good job of helping me with the carts, which was great.
Our newscast wound up being longer than we thought, and I was really concerned about staying on time, so I cut the Brownback copy story we were going to do before the break. It was about Kansas Senator Sam Brownback, who is dropping out of the 2008 Presidential race because of a lack of money and funding. He also lacks some support from fellow conservatives because he supports citizenship for immigrants. He's most likely going to run for governor of Kansas in 2010.
Another small thing people wouldn't know by listening to the broadcast is that there was one story that Matt slipped up reading. It was the anc-ack about the fare deal (which Jordan lent me sound for...thanks, girl!). He messed up because I had a typo. So advice for future producers: don't forget to READ your stories as well. It's not just for the anchor to do.

Oh Lara, you don't need to take the blame. I simply messed up. You did a great job this week and can't wait to work with you again next week too!
