Audio Visual:
The audio visual part of this news cast had many different aspects. It was mostly good but there was distracting people in the background. At one point there was a janitor in the background just like walking around when it should have been no one behind him. Many times during the anchors talk he would not looking at the camera and look down at his notes way too much. He started out looking at the camera and for the next 25 seconds he stayed with his eyes down at the camera and then at the very end he looks up and says thank you. A lot of times the second shooter camera man would get in the way. Something that was kind of interesting to me was that all the anchors were pretty ugly. I thought that anchors were suppose to looks good!
With all their information they had pictures to back it up. They also had statistical analysis to go along with different things. There was also shocking and striking images of same sex marriages and too much PDA.
Timeliness:
Sometimes their timeliness was on target and sometimes it was kind of awkward or not appropriate. Some examples are that it went right from happy topics to weather, i believe that is a good transition. Another good example is how it went from one school incident in one state to another school incident locally. Something that is similar to that is that it went from national politics to local politics. One bad example is when it went from murder to pet stories. They were talking about some intense murder and then went to straight to funny pet stories, like an alligator in front of Walmart.
Also during the show the categories moved from national news to international news. It started with the most local and well known to Americans then moved to farther away and international.
Information:
I'd say that the information provided was above average. There was many good quotes from people who were actually there. They were probably about 50 percent on the facts that are actually interesting. Many first hand accounts and live interviews that provide good information that really pull things together. Its one thing when you have a bunch of information but its another when you back it up with live interviews to show the emotions about the event. It was a good mixture between local and national news. It had some good statistics but at one point it had text on the screen about a certain statistic and he said ten percent and it read 11 percent.
Nightly Newscast Choices:
Some of their choices were spot on and some were just not that great. They were talking about the integration of black people starting to go to school and the history of it and they had a black news anchor cover that story. Also that was the only time a black person was seen being an anchor. The whole show was very off balance with white males compared to everybody else. There was never a women anchor. Their choices of topcs were sometimes not very interesting. It might just be me but a lot of their topics were just pointless. There was just a lot of useless information.
Alos the weather man really let me down. Usually they are suppose to be funny i feel like and he was not. All his lines were so cheesy and made no sense. I was really hoping for a nice weather review and all i got was unfinished jokes and cheesy lines.
