About Me:

I signed out of my accounts on Google and searched my name first. Nothing about me or any of my social media platforms showed up. I tried again, including my middle name and again nothing came up. I tried one more time using just my first and last name, but I also included the town where I live. I then saw a link to my Facebook profile and a link to my LinkedIn profile. I clicked on my Facebook profile first, and the information available without signing in was my name, where I went to high school, where I go to college, and where I work. I then opened up the LinkedIn page, and the information was almost the same. I could only see where I currently work, where I previously worked, and the town that I live in. There are two different photos for each of those profiles, but that’s because I haven’t updated my LinkedIn in a long time.

Content:

I only post frequently on Instagram, and even then, it’s not very frequently. I mostly post about the concerts I go to, repost sports results, or some current event issues. Mostly, I share posts about my personal life on my close friends’ stories, which are kept private and shared only with the people I have added to that specific story.

Frequency:

I don’t post frequently, maybe every few months. I used to post more often in high school but I am a lot more wary about what I post on social media.

Personality:

My posts show my adventurous side for sure. I like to share videos from my concerts and pictures throughout the day of those concerts. I do also post pictures of myself every once in a while. Mostly when I post photos from my vacations. I think you can definitely tell what kind of person I am from my posts and stories.

Professional Interests:

My social media doesn’t highlight my career aspirations or interests. Looking at my profiles, you wouldn’t get a professional vibe from them.

Journalism Skills:

I would like to say that I try to share posts that have the most credibility to them and that shows off my journalism skills, but I rarely share posts that would need to be vetted. I would like to start building a professional tone across my social media and showcasing my journalism skills.

Summary: Late-night TV show host Jimmy Kimmel is set to return to ABC on Tuesday, September 23rd. Kimmel’s show was taken off the air by ABC and Walt Disney Company due to comments he made while talking about Charlie Kirk’s death. The comments were perceived as “insensitive” and “ill-timed.” Both Walt Disney Company and ABC have faced major backlash from this decision. Neither Walt Disney Company nor Kimmel has publicly made statements about the fate of the show.

A. What about the story made it worthwhile enough for you to choose?

This story is current and evolving with each day. Many people have taken to social media to show their disagreement with the decision to take the show off air and have even cancelled their subscriptions to Disney+ on video. A nationwide boycott has formed against Disney on social media as well as accusing the company of taking away First Amendment rights.

B. What types of Multimedia were used by the reporter to tell the story?

The multimedia the reporters used was print. It was a well-formatted story that was written for an online newspaper and included images as well.

C. Audience – The story was meant for people who are interested in the attack on freedoms such as speech and press in the current day. I believe it was also meant for those who have been following along on social media without any other references or sources.

Main News Element- The main news element is interest. Jimmy Kimmel is a well known late-night tv show host with many opinions and comments. The removal of his show has caused an uproar of unsatifsied and angry Disney customers.

Sub-news Element – The sub-news elements are conflict, prominence, and impact. Prominence being the main element because of the involvment of Jimmy Kimmel. He is a well known celebrity. Conflict is another main element because the public is fighting back at Walt Disney Company due to their decision. Impact because the decision has severely impacted both ABC and WDC and Jimmy Kimmel. It has also affected the public and their views on the company as a whole.
