Winol 16/11/11

Once again we have been asked as first years to produce a review of this (ok it's last weeks so don't judge me for it being this late) weeks Winol news bulletin. The presenter of this weeks Winol; Gareth Messenger, was extremely well spoken and comes across well on camera. He introduces each section of the bulletin well and i have to say comes across very professional. The Southampton interview included very good editing when looking at the interviews and overall seemed of good quality. 
One of my favourite stories included on this weeks bulletin was the paedophile case which was some hard-hitting journalism and seemed much like a story which would be included on the BBC news. However, i must say that there may be a few problems with law, and it can be said that the man had been libelled. The reason for this is he had been identified, the story had been published and he had been defamed. However, due to the fact he has been convicted of his crime means the students on Winol have a qualified privilege defence. Yet i can imagine the presenter of this story, Flick, had a few Law problems when covering this story. 


A story included in this weeks Winol which i also really enjoyed was the coverage on the Winchester Uni app, being released in 2012. This instantly targets Winol's audience who are students much like myself, who would be extremely interesting in something like this. For someone like me who doesn't let me Iphone leave my hand, coverage on a story like this had great interest to me and i also thought it was very well put together. 
Each week on Winol I look forward to watching the sport section as each week it is covered slightly differently, although I do normally enjoy watching sport such as Football, i felt like this weeks sport section was a bit long and i began to loose interest. However, i felt the interview with the player was very effective and this made me engage with the piece far more as it felt much more personal. 


As a whole, Winol seems to be getting better each week and as always I am very impressed by the professional standard of both the students and the bulletin itself. Well done!
