Talking about the Inauguration

Brian Lehrer show is online. You can listen to me blather about New Yorkers and Inauguration travel here. Click on "Inauguration Prep."

Things I didn't say that I wish I had:

--That I was a NYU grad student!
--That there are still plenty of bus and plane tickets available, though morning Amtrak trains are starting to sell out
--That I had known where to send New Yorkers coordinating travel to D.C.

My First Radio "Appearance"

My blog on New Yorkers and the Inauguration caught the eye of a producer at the Brian Lehrer show. It's an "under-reported story" and my blog is one of the few things out there on it. (Thanks be to my Writing and Reporting professor who forced the class to keep blogs to track their reporting on their final pieces). I shall be on the radio (WNYC-- 93.9 FM and AM 820) at 11:25 on Wednesday talking about New Yorkers and Inauguration enthusiasm waning. Stay tuned.

Would you call this a radio appearance, or a voice-pearance?

Finals... Busy... No time...

Last week of the semester. So busy. Working on this project for my Writing and Reporting Class: New Yorkers and Inauguration 2009. I have to maintain a blog to accompany a feature story I am writing.

The stress of this week and last force me to ask the question, Why am I paying NYU to do this to me?
