Its been a stressful last few days, with a ton of homework. I had to study for a test I took today, write an essay, do a few homework assignments, and prepare my part of the presentation, but it's finally done! 'I viewed all of the clips, and timed what parts I wanted to use. I was up til 2:30 this morning working on it. But it will be worth it! Our presentation will be great when we do it later this week.

Met in the library again today. We hit a snag today when we found out that some of the video equipment we were going to use wasn't working. We were going to check to see if we could rent some from the JCOM department, but decided against it, and decided to do a blog instead. Everyone was given a tab to do. I was assigned the truth v. truthiness tab, so I will be going over all the clips over the next few days and fact checking them, deciphering the truth from the truthiness.

Today we met in the library again. We reviewed the clips that Adam found from Fox, Colbert, and Jon Stewart. We decided what clips we wanted to use for our project. I was given the assignment to fact check some of the clips we went over, and report it in our next meeting.

Over the last few days, I have been searching the internet for viable info for the project. I found a few articles, news stories, and papers on global warming, totaling about nine pages of information. I will be presenting the info in out meeting in the library on Saturday.
