Seahawk News: Rounding Up News From Around the World

Today we will be exploring news from local all the way to international

Through this assignment, I discovered the importance of rounding up news. I collected information from local news all the way to international news. I used “SALVEtoday” for the current campus news.

00:00-00:10 Anchor	WELCOME TO SEAHAWK NEWS… WE HAVE A LOT TO COVER TONIGHT. TO START OFF THE NATIONAL NEWS, KATIE BURKE WIL BE COVERING THE MUCH-AWAITED STIMULUS RELIEF CHECKS…
00:11-00:42 Reporter	THE TRUMP ADMINISTRATION ANNOUNCED ON MONDAY… THAT CORONA VIRUS RELIEF CHECKS WOULD ARRIVE IN BANK ACCOUNTS FOR MORE THAN EIGHTY-MILLION PEOPLE BY WEDNESDAY. SINGLE ADULTS WITH AN INCOME UNDER SEVENTY-FIVE THOUSAND WILL RECEIVE A ONE-THOUSAND-TWO-HUNDRED DOLLAR CHECK. THEY WILL ALSO RECEIVE AN ADDITIONAL FIVE-HUNDRED DOLLARS FOR EACH CHILD. THE IRS WILL LAUNCH A WEBSITE ON WEDNESDAY FOR THOSE CHECKING ON THE STATUS OF THEIR PAYMENTS.
00:43-00:58 Anchor	THANKS KATIE… THAT IS GREAT NEWS FOR MANY AMERICANS THAT HAVE BEEN STRUGGLING FINANCIALLY. FOR TONIGHTS LOCAL NEWS WE WILL BE COVERING THE SURGE IN MBTA POSITIVE CORONA CASES… BACK TO YOU KATIE
00:59-01:30 Reporter	THE MBTA REPORTED ON MONDAY THAT SEVENTY-FIVE WORKERS HAVE TESTED POSITIVE FOR CORONAVIRUS. THIS TOTAL INCLUDES MOSTLY BUS DRIVERS. ONE EMPLOYEE, WHO WORKED FOR THE MBTA FOR MORE THAN TWENTY-TWO YEARS HAS DIED DUE TO THE VIRUS. THE MBTA ALSO REPORTED THAT RIDERSHIP IS DOWN NINETY-TWO PERCENT. MBTA OFFICIALS STATED THAT THIS DECREASE IN RIDERSHIP WILL RESULT IN ABOUT TWO-HUNDRED-THIRTY MILLION DOLLARS IN LOST REVENUE.
01:31-01:41 Anchor	WOW KATIE… THAT IS A STAGERING NUMBER. NOW WE WILL MOVE ON TO INTERNATIONAL NEWS AND HEAD TO MELBORNE AUSTRALIA
01:42-02:15 Reporter	MORE THAN ONE HUNDRED AUSTRALIAN AND NEW ZEALAND PASSENGERS OF THE ANTARCTIC CRUISE SHIP HAVE ARRIVED IN MELBOURNE ON A FLIGHT FROM URUGUAY. IT WAS CONFIRMED THIS WEEK THAT ONE HUNDRED TWENTY-EIGHT PASSENGERS HAVE TESTED POSITIVE FOR THE CORONAVIRUS. EVERYONE WHO IS INFECTED WENT TO THE HOSPITAL AND THE OTHER PASSENGERS WENT INTO QUARANTINE IN HOTELS. THERE HAS BEEN ONE REPORTED DEATH FROM A CORONAVIRUS INFECTED PASSENGER IN AUSTRALIA LEAVING AUSTRALIA’S NATIONAL DEATH TOLL AT FIFTY-SEVEN.
02:16-02:25 Anchor	AND NOW ONTO OUR FEATURE STORY TONIGHT… IT WAS A WELCOME SITE AT LOGAN AIRPORT WHEN THE PATRIOTS PLANE ARRIVED
02:26-03:02 Reporter	THE PLANE ARRIVED ON APRIL FIRST CARRYING MORE THAN ONE MILLION MASKS FOR HEALTHCARE WORKERS. THE SHIPMENT CONTAINED N95 AND KN95 MASKS. LOCAL HEALTHCARE WORKERS ARE EXPRESSING CONCERN SINCE THE KN95 MASKS ARE NOT REGULATED BY THE FDA. GOVERNOR BAKER STATES ON MONDAY… THAT ALL OF THE MASKS WERE INSPECTED… AND FDA APPROVED FOR USE. HOWEVER… A MASSACHUSETTS E.R. DOCTOR SAID THAT EVEN THOUGH THE MASKS ARE SIMILAR, HE WOULD NOT BE COMFORTABLE WEARING A KN95 MASK IN THE HOSPITAL.

03:03-03:10 Anchor	THAT IS VERY CONCERNING FOR OUR HEALTHCARE WORKERS ON THE FRONT LINE. FOR OUR LAST STORY TONIGHT… WE WILL BE COVERING SOME ONCAMPUS NEWS
03:11-03:42 Reporter	REMOTE LEARNING IS CHALLENGING BECAUSE SALVE REGINA HAS NEVER EXPERIENCED IT BEFORE. REMOTE LEARNING IS CAUSING STRUGGLES ESPECIALLY WITH HANDS ON CLASSES SUCH AS THE DANCE PROGRAM. MUCH OF THE WORK THE DANCERS DO IS MEANT TO BE IN PERSON. IN RESPONSE TO THIS REMOTE LEARNING… THE DANCE PROGRAM IS VIRTUALLY HAVING MORE TECHNIQUE CLASSES THAN IT USUALLY HAS ON A WEEKLY BASIS. THERE ARE ALSO MANY COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS GOING ON WITH OTHER UNIVERSITIES WHICH ALLOWS DANCERS TO CROSS PATHS WITH PEOPLE THAT THEY MIGHT NOT HAVE.  REPORTING LIVE… THIS IS KATIE BURKE.
03:43-03:46 Anchor	THANKS KATIE. THAT IS ALL FOR TONIGHT… STAY SAFE.
