Gossip Is Easy, Politics Is Hard.

At Nbc I Wasn't Really Sure If The Grandparents Were Going To Get My Sense Of Humor On A Particular Topic.

If The Breaking News Event Has Something To Do With Young People, Specifically With Mtv's Audience, There Was A Higher Chance That I Would Actually Go Cover It With A Television Camera Instead Of Just Write The Story Myself And Read It On The Air.

At Mtv, It's Very Nice Sometimes To Be Able To Be Very Specific. Specificity Really Makes A News Story Interesting Because You Can Color It In That Personality.

Online, You Have Things Like Slate Magazine, Which Has A Lot Of Commentary And Analysis Of Stories, So It Gives You A Fuller Picture. I Would Compare That To A News Magazine Or The New Republic.

In The New York Times, You're Going To Get Completely Different Information Than You Would In The Usa Today.
