Good morning - here's an explanation of what I'm doing today, ripped from my friend Stacey's blog.


"[Today] is going to be an exciting day because it is the national tsunami drill day. Around 9:30am, an alarm will sound and everyone will go heading for the hills. We are covering it as if we're a newsroom covering a breaking news event. There are two different groups going to two different towns. Everyone will be stationed somewhere different (top of the hill, bottom, school, in between). We have people doing video, photos, audio, and writing . . . Then everything will be compiled into one big multimedia presentation. It will then be placed on the website alongside our individual stories."

More later,

XO, Julie

If you're covering it like a breaking news event, then isn't stationing someone at the top of the hill, already waiting for the "fleeing masses," kinda cheating?

I'm just saying...
