Belmont journalism students explore satirical video
The impending death of local media staple Nashville Is Talking is sad but there are signs of life for innovative journalism all around.
Recap: Christian announced and reflected. Kleinheider added context. Wage wants beer.
One local example of life: Satire is one of the few growing categories in news and Belmont students are exploring the relevant space between entertainment and information brilliantly.
Of course students need the basics, but they also need an collegiate process that allows for innovation to make a broad liberal arts practical in hard times. Bravo! In fact, if the alumni relations office calls me while I’m watching The Week at Belmont, I’ll be in such a good mood that I may just throw some money into the pot. (Satire?)
Things are changing in this town. Meeting a blogger is no longer rare, like when bloggers converged on Nashville to learn from each other in 2005. What comforts me when I see the death of something great, are the signs of life that overtake the gravestone—er I mean you should check out their videos. They are wicked LULZ!!
