Wow. I haven't heard someone talk so shittily about something since Joe Pesci conversing about anything in Goodfellas. Hamilton Nolan could not have voiced a stronger opinion than he did. Saying "Fuck" to everything that Boston has to offer is a tad harsh. He even went as far to give a big fuck you to all the prestigious universities that Boston is the home of. I find the way that he talks about Boston because not only is he cursing the city, but he is also bringing light to the awesomeness of it.

Is it Time? By A Dog
So, I’ve never actually read any of the Gawker articles by A Dog and was glad to find one of them on the list. It gave me an excuse to read them because I don’t read much of anything on my own. Yes. I read multiple ones.
Is Everything Wrestling? by Jeremy Gordon
I wasn’t really sure what I was getting myself into when I decided to read this piece by Jeremy Gordon. Would it be all about the WWE? Some kid’s personal story about the sport they compete in? Some kind of meme (because there was DEFINITELY an epidemic last year with wrestling memes).
I listened to the Grand Gestures episode of This American Life. I'd heard so many people recommend this podcast that I had to check it out, and I have to say, it's definitely worth the listen. I was wary of spending an hour listening to something because I'm not a very patient listener and typically prefer written stories because I can read them as fast as I want. Despite this, I felt like I was doing too many written pieces for my mcj so I decided to just go for it and listen to the podcast. And I'm super glad I did.

In class, we discussed the different types of photos that you might include in a photo essay for your upcoming assignment. The photo essay is a form made famous in TIME magazine, where photographers like Ansel Adams and W Eugene Smith made some of the most important contributions to the genre. Incidentally, many wedding photographers essentially use the tools of the photo essay. Inspired by this post on Poynter (as well as some discussion of it here), let's take a look at a photo gallery produced for an NPR story on health care for some examples of the different sorts of photos (or illustrations!) in multimedia publications. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=44&v=N_3m52fzBV0
The different shots that the Poynter article identifies here are a scene-setter, a medium shot, a portrait, an action shot, a macro/detail.
Poynter's description is in italics, mine in standard font.
Caitlin Dewey, a senior at Syracuse University, gives an account of her experiences with dating a guy via Skype and then finally meeting him in person. On screen, Will is this quirky, caring, fun to be around intellectual. In real life, or IRL, he's none of those things. Caitlin drove seven hours to go meet the guy that she had fallen in love with on screen only to find out that he's not that great at keep a conversation alive and falls short when it comes to showing affection.

This installment of Criminal was very interesting. The story that is told in Episode 33: Deep Dive, is about Sgt. David Mascarenas, who is a dive specialist for the LA Police Department. In Episode 33, the Dive Specialist is sent into the Tar Pits to find some evidence that was believed to be dumped there in a high profile murder case. Mascarenas took it upon himself to dive into the Tar Pits in search of the evidence.

What Does It Mean To Be A Lesbian In 2017? By Shannon Keating
While I liked the premise of this article and agreed with a lot of what Keating said, I wasn’t surprised about what I found when I scrolled too far down and ended up in hell the comments section. Everyone was attacking her for what they perceived as an attack on lesbians. And honestly, that wasn’t too surprising to me. As someone who has occasionally called myself a lesbian in the past, I usually just say ‘queer’ for simplicity’s sake now.
