80 | Student Journalism | Race & Diversity | Long Island Advocate | Queer trans Long Islanders of color support ERA ballot measure | Annie MacKeigan | Great example of localizing a state-wide story. Looooved to see an anecdote from someone impacted front and center, but I lost the voice of the writer for a bit with the heavy reliance on quotes. Consider using paraphrasing more early on. At the end, so happy to see the circle story structure applied, but make sure it is super clear to the reader whose voice it is -- we may need a little reminder after reading all the way to the end. | Long Island Advocate & WRHU | Hofstra journalism students reflect on DNC reporting | Camryn Bowden | Strong use of first-person storytelling to localize a national news story. Inclusion of podcast is a great idea. Felt the headline was misleading, though, and failed to sell a really good multimedia story. | Long Island Advocate & WRHU | Artist serves up Haitian cuisine, culture in Uniondale | Camryn Bowden | Clean writing, but the story called out for an ending quote to button it all up.
