HUGE thanks to two of my favorite sportswriters and people, Sean Gregory from TIME and Brett Taylor from Bleacher Nation, for joining my UIowa SJMC sportswriting class today to share their insights on sports media, writing, interviewing & creating content sports fans love.


Thank you Iowa PBS for sharing the story of our UIowa SJMC and The Daily Iowan students & the work they’ve done to keep community journalism alive in the Solon, Mount Vernon & Lisbon communities. youtu.be/HhJqY-lsbik?si…
