Permission of instructor (tbettag@umd.edu). This course explores long-form journalism using stories from programs like 60 Minutes. We'll emphasize the art of reporting and storytelling. We will use television stories as our material but this will not be a television production course. Whenever possible, we will discuss these stories with the reporters themselves either in person or via Zoom.
