ONEONTA, N.Y. --
Brian Madden, a faculty member in the
Communication Arts Department of the SUNY College at Oneonta,
put his experience as a reporter and anchor with several major media
outlets to good use on a recent trip to Washington, DC. Madden--who
has reported for CNN, Fox, UPI TV, and the ABC and NBC Radio
Networks--produced a video for use in his classes at the College
based on a White House Daily Press Briefing and his interviews with
White House Press Secretary Dana Perino and several news reporters
and producers.
Madden will use the tape to provide insight into the people and
processes involved in a White House Daily Press Briefing for
students in his Reporting, Broadcast Journalism, and Broadcast
Announcing classes.
Madden assembled the videotape with a combination of his own
material and coverage produced by C-SPAN. He produced, narrated, and
edited the video for use as a teaching tool in Communications Arts
classes.
Madden was given access to the briefing by the White House Press
Office. Though the daily briefings are open to reporters only, he
was allowed to attend because of his media background and his
teaching responsibilities at the College.
Madden premiered the video in his Reporting class this week and
will show it again in Dr. Arthur Dauria's Survey of Communication
Arts class on November 1. More information about the video is
available from Brian Madden at (607) 436-3049.
