Re-Cap of Tuesday

Jenn--

Here is a recap of what we did today...

By Thursday have a brief outline of what your story will include. We decided on having one main location i.e hospital for red cross, school for civilian, etc..., 4 additional locations/events throughout the day and the endpoint is going to be the council of ministries (mountainlair) where the bombing will take place. Compile all of your information in a Word document. We will need to have all pictures/links/videos by next Tuesday.

We decided there is going to be a "talk" given by the ex-mayer of Baghdad which will be why we are all at the Council of MInistries. You will be there reporting the event, Ann and Casey will be attending the talk, Cara will respond to the bombing.

The specific tile of the speech is real and is as follows:

RFE/RL's Radio Free Iraq (RFI) correspondent Ahmad al-Zubaydi interviewed ousted Baghdad Mayor Ala' al-Tamimi on 9 August by telephone after he was forcibly removed from his position on 8 August by armed men supporting Baghdad City Council Chairman Mazin Makkiya.

If you want to search the actual speech contents google "ousted mayer of Baghdad speaks" and it should come up.

Next tuesday night at 5pm we will be meeting at the CAC with the guys to put together our stories and the interactive maps. Because we are meeting at 5 we won't be meeting at 1.

LAST: For our presentation, check out the link Camera Zapper. We have divided up the rest.
