Public Meeting Analysis

In the MN Daily's article, "Legislature appoints four regents," the journalist writes about the newly elected regents.

In crafting the news story the journalist carefully selected previous facts about the newly elected regents to include into the story. For example, the journalist has been closely following the race to know who has been in the lead. MN Daily wrote that, "Last week, [Lucas] faced a tight recommendation battle against Dennis Nguyen, chairman and co-founder of New Asia Partners and a Minneapolis resident," which clearly illustrates the knowledge of the journalist on this topic.

In addition, the journalist wrote about the regents achievements before being elected. Knowing the background of the regents before the race also illustrate the extra amount of work the journalist put into the story.
