What’s more emotionally devastating than baring your soul to a television writer’s room? For Yulin Kuang, it might just be reminiscing about high school. In our hilarious conversation with the debut author of How to End a Love Story, we discuss the required skills of a TV writer, what makes workplace romances so hot, and settle the debate of whether LA or NYC is superior.

60 Minutes went live in 1968. The New York Times has called it "one of the most esteemed news magazines on American television." 60 Minutes has been on television for 55 seasons with over 2,500 episodes produced. 60 Minutes is the most-watched news program in American history. Using Life Magazine as inspiration, the creators saw how the print editors organized their content from hard to soft while flipping through the magazine. Life Magazine had a history of starting with a public policy story, adding a science and innovation piece, and following that with a report on a leading personality or cultural happening. What a great mix of stories. What a great mix of stories to copy and create a news magazine television show. Full post here: https://buff.ly/3L7Zq0K

MD & Founder Mangold Consultancy - insight-driven, journalist-led crisis communications management and media training.
What David Frost taught me. I've honed my craft working with and listening to journalists. 🥇 My most valued moments? One of them has to be working with David Frost on Breakfast With Frost. 💡 His mantra was to ‘Make Every Word Count’. 🎒 New to BBC TV in 1997 with very little experience, I was fortunate to learn so much by being in the presence of this TV giant. As a programme runner I got to watch him reviewing every script, red penning superfluous words. It is forever burnt into my memory. 👉🏻 And today preparing communications in a crisis, I remind myself to ‘be more David’ and chuck out every syllable that doesn’t reinforce what needs saying. ❓ Where do you need to “be more David”? #MangoldConsultancy #StrategicCommunications #crisiscomms #crisiscommunications #reputationmanagement #mediatraining

The best way to learn how to write is to begin. Write anything, just get that tap turned on. Write about the people you see in the park. Write about your friends, family, even fictional soap or TV characters. Make up a portion of their lives and see where it leads you. #writingtips

FAKE NEWS. Many politicians and celebrities use the term to label any press against them. It's led me to doubt the credibility of almost any story I read online. But how do we determine what is and isn't fake news? I discussed this topic with an old university friend Jodie Jackson who is an expert in "news literacy" Listen to the full episode here 👉 https://lnkd.in/eEYt5kCb

Radio friends, let’s rethink the way we do news in our show. Let’s start by investing in storytelling. Rather than focus on breaking information, let’s tell better stories. News can be divisive, but stories can be encouraging. News can divide and stories can bring listeners together. News has victims and stories have characters who overcome adversity. If we do anything that is reoccurring on our show, we should have a well through out strategy for it. I think the key to making news connect is embracing your listener’s point of view, and redirecting them to also see the possibility of hope. (Think about where that ultimately comes from?) We’re not investigative reporters. We are personalities. Let’s use the hope in our worldview as a way to frame and tell better stories.
