Talking with Terry

I think that some of the advantages that Terry Seguin uses in two way communication is to see if his audience likes what his interveiw or newcasts and if the audience changes then Terry would find out also. I think journalism would be taught best with hands on training because each interview is different and every person is different, so hands on training would be the best to know how people would respond to certain question to learn the possibilities of answers. I think the time frame on tv and radio interviews would affect the public because if they werer interested in the interviews they would probably chose radio for the longer time frame. There is way to much unimportant news in our society today and I agree with Terry that there should be news based on things that affect our lives.

Caught in Lies

      I thought that some of the news that I had read would be not truthfull but full to it's meaning because whenever your reading it's just something you can not believe that happent. The reaction I had when I read these articles was surprised on how the guy had made up stories on a real person but on the other story isn't as bad because it made up a person. I believe they would have to skill to be a good journalist instead of making up stories to make them look good they should find a good story and make it fabricated a little bit. I think that the universitys and colleges should do a better job at teaching them what could go wrong with jourlism in interviews and stuff like that.I don't have a opinion on the abudsment because they can be helpful to explain to the readers complaints out fully and try to make them understand and can be bad to raise the complaints because people who have them have someone to rage at

Taking the Photo

The Rule of Thirds

This picture is a good example about the rule of thirds where the soccer player is around the 3rd line of the grid and centered.

This picture show fill the frame type of photo to show the practice techniques as a soccer team.

Framing/Composition
  Alex Cejka Of Germany Plays
This picture is a good framing/composition type of photo because it shows the golfer in a course that looks like it either really hard to show he's profesional or the course is unfinished.

Framing and Point of Veiw
  Rory McIlroy Of Northern Ireland And Caddie J.P Fitzgerald Walk Bewtween Volcanic Rocks
This shows a good point of veiw when taking a photo for when you are far away and showing off the landscape.

When Interviews Go Wrong

Barbara Frum had kept her interviewing style during this interveiw with Sandra Good by keep asking her Questions that has something to do with what Sandra just did and later on got the right information about it. The outcome of what would happen if Barbara Frum had been more confrontational it could possibly that Sandra would hang up the phone or actually give information if she might of been more straight to the point but nobody can predict how someone's reactions would have went if something went different. I think that Barbara's effecting question was if Charles death was justified and Sanadra answer was yes. It was effective because it proves Sandra dosen't mind killing people to get to the point of making everyone believe her way of saving the world or at least making it a santcuary but in my opinion how could it be a place of good if you had to kill people who dissagreed with you because your becoming evil or making evil descision to get there. Some good question to have for preparing for an interveiw are different ways of asking the same question incase the interviewee went off topic and you had to bring up something that had to do with the person beliefs in order to get them to give the information your looking for. I learnt from Frum's interview that you cannot judge if the questions are going to go your way so you just have the get the know the person a bit more and keep on talking until you get to the point where your question would not bother the interviewee anymore. I would like to interview Oli Herbert who is the lead guitarist for the Metal band All That Remains and I would ask how he got to this band or was he here since the beginning. I would also get to see how they came up with the name for this band. I dont think that Oli would be a hard interview because most metal band guys are approachable and easy to talk to.
