John Fink

John Fink came in to class today was the guest speaker. He has been in the television industry for many years now and he gave us everything he's got. He is now on the tv station khnl which is a off breed of NBC. He has worked with many people including professor Britos during his time in the television industry. During his time in class he went over some of the concerns in national stage. He gave the class advice on how we should get involved so our world won't be all messed up. HE also encouraged some of the people to try the television industry because KHNL gives internships and scholarships to students who want to go into the television business. It was interesting to see his aspect of tv and everything he does. He does all of his own segments called "Think About It" on KHNL and it was interesting hearing from him how and why he does it. His reasoning behind doing the Think About It segments is that he knows a lot of people these days don't actually think about stuff too hard and his segments challenge viewers in every aspect to actually think long and hard about the subjects he is discussing. Overall the visit was quit pleasant and he does have a very interesting proposal in broadcasting because I see myself as a very social person and would love to get paid to talk essentially.
