Tonight on C-SPAN2: "Breaking News, Breaking Down"
March 6, 2009 by Stan Alcorn
Turn on C-SPAN2 tonight at 7 p.m. (EST) and watch 2005 Ochberg Fellow Mike Walter's documentary "Breaking News, Breaking Down."
The film grew out of a 2007 Dart Society project called Target: New Orleans that sent reporters to the Gulf Coast to lend a hand in post-Katrina reconstruction. The film interweaves this trip with reporters speaking candidly about the hardest stories they've covered and how, as Walter says, "breaking news can break you down."
If you don't have C-SPAN2 on TV, don't worry; you can watch the live stream online.
