1. Your assignment for this discussion board is to listen to three radio station

1. Your assignment for this discussion board is to listen to three radio station news reports and to compare and contrast their styles. Was their content different or similar? Why was that the case? Is this your first time to listen to radio or do you already have a favorite? What are your radio listening habits? Do the radio newscasts entice you to follow up on the stories they highlighted by using another media device to track down the rest of the story? As an additional and optional thought, how do apps like Pandora affect radio? Do people listen to “radio” via their computers at work now, and how does that affect radio?
As always, please write about 450 words with correct spelling and grammar.
2. Turn in your beat paper converted into radio spots for 30 and 60 seconds- so you will have two radio spot scripts. Then you will record yourself reading your 30-second radio spot and submit an audio file with your scripts.
Your assignment will be to write a 30-second and a 60-second radio news spot using your beat paper. You are NOT creating a commercial for your beat. You are creating a radio news story.
