Review

I thought the movie was very interesting. I like how it pertained to this class so well and that it should us the ropes of journalism. It blows my mind to think that someone would lie to millions of people about what they were writing about. To think that important people such as congress men and even the president probably read the fraud articles that he now has gotten into trouble for is crazy. Overall I thought it was a good movie.

I liked this class because it should me what it would be like to be a journalist. I want to go into the field of public relations so this class was a bit similar to that in a sense. The only thing I didnt like about this class was I didnt think we wrote enough news stories for this class to actually be a journalism class. I felt as if it was lengthy and boring but overall I would recommend this class to people who like to write and are interested in that area.
