Classmate Review: Taylor Swift surprise
http://emilyjournalism1.blogspot.com/2013/11/i-am-not-happy-camper.html
In this post by Emily, she describes a story by WAVE3 about a young girl who received Taylor Swift tickets in her happy meal. This story is not newsworthy at all, and should not be on the WAVE3 website. I liked how Emily stated that this story only affects the girl and no one else. I am sure that there were plenty of newsworthy stories that could have been presented instead of this one. The reaction of the girl made it just a youtube hit, but, for some reason, WAVE3 decided to put it on their website.  This story should not have found its way into the news. The viewing audience deserves better.
