EDITING
FC KICKS IT IN CINCY
Editing this story took time and help from other Spark members in order to be ready for the issue. FCC is a major event in Cincinnati, therefore, this story went through rounds of editing. It went through the feature editor, sports editor, and news editor in order to ensure that it was up to its full ability. Each time it was edited we all sat down for an hour at a time reviewing and comparing it.
SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH
While writing this story, the district was very hesitant to give me information so I had to be very careful when writing and editing it. For this story, I went off the record with a source and made sure his voice did not influence the piece. This went through rounds of editing to make sure the district would not find problems with it. The statistics were from the district and double checked for accuracy.
BOARD REJECTS TRANSGENDER POLICY
This story went through rounds of editing and multiple drafts to finalize the piece. I started the piece off with an interview with Mike Dennison. After him, I went to the Lakota board and interviewed them. By getting both sides of the policy I was able to draft and edit it down to a finalized piece.
