Newswriting Assignment 2

Tati Westbrook is a Youtube personality whose channel revolves around reviewing beauty products. I have been a longtime follower of Tati, and have enjoyed watching her success I know she deserved from the beginning. I gravitate towards her because of her genuine and honest reviews That is why I chose her to write about out of all other beauty channels on Youtube. Others should follow Tati because she is a reliable reporter. She is honest if a product does not work for her, and she gives specific reasons why she did not like it. She gives each product a fair chance. She goes into the review with an open mind. She does not take paid partnerships with beauty brands. She believes this will interfere with the trust her subscribers have with her. One attribute I like about her reporting is she tells the truth, but remains respectful. She is very direct, but she does not tear down a brand if they make a bad product. One thing I would change about her reporting, would be her unnecessary apologies and disclaimers.
As a freelance makeup artist, I learned a lot of skills and techniques from other makeup artists on Youtube. When I was first building my kit, Tati was one of the few Youtubers I knew I could put full trust into when purchasing reliable products. When I think of Tati I think of growth in my business.

In November 2018, President Donald Trump and the White House revoked CNN reporter Jim Acosta’s hard pass. He was no longer allowed to enter the white house and attend press conferences. This suspiciously occurred right after the president and Acosta had a tense press conference earlier. Trump has been known to criticize reporters and their networks. During this press conference, he had continually been shutting down Acosta from asking questions. The president began insulting him calling him “a rude, terrible person” (Stelter, B.) He was also insulting CNN and NBC claiming it is “fake news” (Castellano, A.). The majority of the press conference was Trump insulting reporters, especially Acosta, to avoid answering the hard questions they were asking. The next time Acosta attempted to enter the White House, he was denied by a security guard with no previous warning. This then led to CNN taking this issue to the federal court in attempts to get Jim Acosta’s hard pass returned. Jim Acosta’s...

Morals

Morals Don’t be deceitful:             I believe it is important to be transparent. It is difficult to say you don’t believe in lying as it has often been argued that every single person lies. This is different than lying. This is about not being misleading or insincere. I find this moral to be most useful when involving work. For example, if I were to be a writer, due to my morals I would not give a great review to a product, restaurant, etc. that I actually dislike or have not even tried. I think it is really hard to find genuine opinions these days for underlying reasons, and I think it is wrong to deceit people.              Be kind, especially to strangers:             Being kind is a simple yet important code in my morals. It sounds very simple, but it can be difficult once you’ve been ha...
