Comments : Varion, It was quite a pleasure to listen to the interview with Kelvin Wooten and the up close with Ruben. Two gentlemen I go way back with... all the way back to The Morrison Building... That is where some awesome talent has been displayed on the campus of Alabama A&M. I am not partial to AAMU because i know Greats have come from MANY areas in Alabama... do you line up your interviews or do you have a team that works with you? With Magic City Classic looming, a ASU vs AAMU battle of the talents would be a great event to begin that brings together all of these talents and make magic happen! Doug Williams, Ricky Smiley, Tavarius Jackson from ASU. Mr Wooten, and Mr. Studard as mentioned, Robert Mathis, One of Atlanta's premier Business experts LaVon Lewis, and even future successes.

9/11-"AMERICA REMEMBERS" 10 YEARS LATER

 

September 11th---It's a somber anniversary we can "never forget!  September 11, 2001 the day nearly 3 thousand souls were lost in New York, Washington, D.C. and Shanksville, PA. It was one of the most brutal attacks on American soil as the twin towers of the World Trade Center; The Pentagon in Washington, D.C. and United Airlines Flight 93 carrying 40 passengers and crew refused to become victims, but heroes!  10 years later we also honor the memory of the brave fire fighters, emergency responders and service members who also made the ultimate sacrifice in "keeping America free."

Today as the world stops to pause, "reflect and remember" I wanted to share with you a special documentary my friend Jeff Weber shared with me. Thank you Jeff! God Bless America.

                                        "NEVER FORGET-NEVER SURRENDER!"

"Connect. Celebrate. CNN Reunion! "- TJ HOLMES

(Philadelphia, PA.)-August 6th-- Yes ladies, CNN News Anchor T.J. Holmes is as fine as you think.  Fine as in a "fine journalist", scholar and husband.  That's right, this "T.V. Hottie" was recently taken off the market after marrying Marilee Fiebig, an Atlanta based attorney earlier this year.

CNN's T.J. Holmes and Former CNN Business Anchor Valorie Morris-Coleman


During the recent NABJ (National Association of Black Journalists) Convention Philadelphia, it was obvious the two "love birds" were in love with the "City of Brotherly Love." They were spotted checking out the monuments, holding hands and sneaking in
an occasional kiss or two.




But, it was during the NABJ President Kathy Times Gala I caught T.J. Holmes in a sweet reunion with another lady, his former co-worker Valorie Coleman Morris.  As you can see from the photos it's been a while since the two have seen each one another.  They celebrated with a big embrace and warm smiles.

The two have probably known each other since their days working in the bay area of San Francisco.  Valorie is a former financial news anchor for CNN.  These days you can check him out on Saturday and Sunday morning on CNN and check out Valorie's website by visiting: Valorie Coleman-Morris at Valorie Colman Morris

It was indeed my pleasure meeting them both
and being something of a "fly on the wall" as
they "reconnected, celebrated and enjoyed
their CNN reunion!"

TOP TECH TRENDS FOR JOURNALISTS

(Philadelphia, PA.)  -NABJ CONVENTION--Talk about 21st Century Reporting! 
Look who's getting"smart" about their "smart phones!" Ready or not, more backpack journalists are getting the job done  without all of that antiquated, big, bulky gear. 
 





Check it out, that's a tiny lavaliere microphone with an actual windscreen.  Also, the tripod fits the I-PHONE  "like a glove" with the help of a special brace you can find at any local camera shop.  The microphone will only set you back about $20-dollars.
 
In 2011 news is immediate and breaking news is essential!  This workshop is designed to give journalists an overview of the technology and applications that allow journalists to share video content with their mobile devices.  We're talking live streaming, breaking news situations for independent journalists who are busy dominating social media sights and their blogs.

Journalist Keisa Sharpe learns to Edit on I-Pod

This new style of "smart reporting" with multimedia will help us to go to "video and beyond!"  Big thank you goes out to Serbino Sandifer Walker, Professor, Texas Southern University and Multimedia Director, KTSU.  Also Malik Singleton, Independent Journalist and Amani Channel, Senior Producer, KEF Media Associates.
