New Year, New Stories

Happy Fall Solstice! It’s Anne and Caroline, your producers for the Rockbridge Report this semester. While we were busy at work this summer at CBS in Washington, D.C. and ArkMedia in Brooklyn, NY the coveted “J-school” (our home away from home) was busy getting ready for a new year.

We have a group of great reporters this year, each of whom will focus on a “beat” or aspect of the area community. Brooke Sutherland is our business and commerce beat. Michael Freeman will cover police and courts. Melissa Powell is tackling the Education beat and Holly Suthers is following the happenings within Lexington. Tim Watson will focus on Rockbridge County news. Finally, Jessica Strait will keep us up to date on social welfare and religion.

This semester, the Rockbridge Report will tackle big issues like the water loop project, follow citizens seeking public office in the upcoming elections, and as always, keep Rockbridge County informed.

We look forward to your viewership and comments about the website and newscast. The Rockbridge Report broadcasts Thursdays on channel 18 at 4:30pm. If you don’t live in the viewing area, check us out at http://rockbridgereport.wlu.edu to see the broadcast online.
