Description
In this episode, Season 4 host Matthew Karshna interviews Landen Todd, a student at UGA and an aspiring journalist. Landen is a podcaster and sports writer and a senior in the Grady School of Journalism. We will be discussing the ways in which journalists approach writing compared to others that are unique to their world and vital to their craft—and very public work. Altogether, a journalist’s writing style and strategies inform the influence journalism has on society, culture, and thought, spanning areas from sports to politics. Sports writing, we learn from Landen, can teach us so much about how important writing is and what journalists think about as they craft content for public consumption. Get ready to hear what a journalist thinks about writing.
