  1. KRHD ABC 40 TVA little background information… • ABC 40 is the local ABC station for the larger ABC network. • ABC 40 brings the Brazos Valley their local daily news reports, as well as sports reports. • This station is committed to giving our community accurate, unbiased, and up-to-date information on all of the important issues.

  2. Applying to ABC 40: What does it take? • If you want to become an intern: • With your completed resume, submit a written request to the station stating you want to intern there and why. • You must be able to receive school credit. • Once a request is submitted, the producer will call you and have you come fill out an application. They will decide if you will do well working for their company. • A desire to want to learn more about the behind the scenes view of the news world makes this a great experience! NOW…If you’re ready for the full-time job: Have a bachelor’s degree in Journalism or other related field, and some work experience. Get ready to send out those resume tapes!

  3. What to expect while working at ABC 40: • Turn in all your assignments by the deadline. • Be comfortable interviewing members of the community. • Be creative when writing news stories. Tell the facts. • Aid in the completion of news packages and editing video. • The intern works closely with the members of the ABC 40 News Team to complete these daily assignments and cover the area’s news. • Make every phone call necessary to get the story written. Use your contacts. • Be professional, work hard, and get good video!

  4. My duties as an intern: • Make phone calls for interviews, get mug shots or accident reports, or simply ask for directions. • Help research possible news stories. • Shoot video while the reporter does their stand-up. • Work with the reporter to put together a good script. • Aid in editing video and adding sound. • Meet, greet, and observe the interviewing process. Think of my own good questions! • I aided the news reporters in completing their daily assignments. • The best part is, you get to see your finished product on TV at 10 o’clock!

  5. What I’ve gained from this experience: • I’ve learned about an industry I have always wanted to know more about. • Connections and networking makes a difference! • Working in a professional setting for a semester has better prepared me for a career when I finish school. • I been able to do things I never would have learned such as shoot a camera, edit videos, and put together a news script.

  6. Just one more thing… • Men and women are expected to fill different roles in society and act in different ways, even when they do the same job. • It is believed that men and women do their jobs differently because they live up to the societal expectations put upon them to form their identity.
