I have, as I've mentioned, Job Two now. I am the Campus and Federal Politics reporter for the Oregon Daily Emerald. My first two stories were published Friday. Here they are: a meeting recap and a a story about basketball.
Unexciting.
These stories are dry. They're the kind of stories that were being run when I first got the job, except worse because I was really confused at the time and because my writer's voice conflicts with the editor's voice. There's no tension, no real human interest. I want to fix that. Campus and Federal Politics are meaningless if your vision is only as wide as the boardroom. I need to talk to people who are being affected by campus politics. Then maybe people will read my stories.
