The Last Field Trip

This opportunity came in this week. I will make it available for field trip credit.

The Journalism Department will screen the George Clooney film "Goodnight, and Good Luck" on Friday, May 30 at 12:30 in SG334 (the Media Arts studio). MC101 students will receive field trip credit for viewing the film if they complete the following assignment...

Answer the following three questions about "Good Night, and Good Luck." Your completed assignment should be 200-250 words.

1. How is journalism different than entertainment?

2. Why was Edward R. Murrow successful in discrediting Sen. Joseph McCarthy?

3. What parts of the movie are probably fictionalized and exaggerated, and why?

Your field trip assignments should be turned in to me no later than June 3.
