Snow Assignment

February 11th, 2010

Good Morning America reported a story about a Fairfax county school administrator’s wife who left a not-so-pleasant voice-mail for a student.  The student had called and left a message at the home of the administrator complaining that they had not gotten a day off of school due to the snow storm.  He left his name and number and received an angry call back.  Listen to the message here.

This was an interesting way to report on the storm because it was hilarious and entertaining.  Instead of just reporting statistics, Good Morning America showed just how crazy the snow is making some people get.  This story is unique and not something people would get bored of halfway through.

    The snow is making people crazy and the administrator’s wife is living proof!

    The story is unique and I am surprised I have not heard more about it. I think that Good Morning America has some pretty interesting stories and this is one of them.

    After listening to the voice message I did a little digging into this story to see how other people presented the story and I think the The Washington Post had the article,Va. Student’s Snow-Day Plea Triggers an Online Storm, was fair and unbiased on both sides. You and anyone else interested in this story will find this interesting.The link to the story is below.
