This blog is about a recal in store bought childrens medication. The company initiated the recall after a Food and Drug Administration inspection of its manufacturing facility revealed some contamination and problems with correct dosage. The recal includes medicines like TYLENOL, MOTRIN, ZYRTEC and BENADRYL.
This is a polished form of what we see on the television or in the news because it is shorter, less detailed, and more to the point. It informs us better because it doesn't give all of the unimportant details that are added to make the news sound better or more interesting. Being a new journalist, I have realized that blogging is more effective because in the midst of peoples busy lives, they are able to be notified of important news stories in short simple ways while getting all the imoprtant facts. It is quick and easy as opposed to reading a news paper or turning on the television and waiting for the particular story to come on that you want to hear about. If i were to go into journalism today, I would be prepared to share the world with my facts and opinions on my own blog because blogging is becoming such a huge part of journalism.
