I looked at another article about The Manchester College’s inclusion in the Olympics, in which students from the college were given the opportunity to help make repairs and improvements to TeamGB’s bobsleighs – which are to be used in the 2014 Winter Olympics. This brought forward another string to the already strong bow of the college’s relationship with the Olympic teams. I would be able to developed this idea and manipulate it in such a way that it would be beneficial to the College, with the broadcast giving a positive image to not only the skill of the students at the college, but the college’s inclusion in international events. This would create a symbiotic relationship with the college, in which both parties are benefiting.
This is the article relating to TeamGB’s involvement with The Manchester College:
Emily Rawlins, like all other professional athletes, is looking for funding and sponsorship which would add yet another layer of interest to this already mutually beneficial relationship between regular people and broadcast media
Unfortunately, we decided to drop my lead of a story when communications with Emily Rawlins broke down and appeared uninterested in appearing in our news package. As is the same with all journalism, you can’t always produce the stories that appear to be very interesting. As it stood, before collapse in communication, there was potentially a very good story that involved The Manchester College and would be extremely relevant to current events, but without there being a possibility of an interview with Emily Rawlins, our news package wouldn’t contain enough substance and would lose the personal touch that it would’ve had, were the interview to have taken place.
