A plug for my alma mater - The NYU Arthur L. Carter Institute of Journalism. Here’s an insider look at one of their masters concentrations: Studio 20.
Wonder why we say Studio 20 is unlike any other journalism program out there? Curious about what we do? Thinking of applying? Check our latest attempt to put it all into words.Studio 20 - New York University from The Local East Village on Vimeo.
And if you are one of those kinds of bloggers. Please, for the sake of humanity, keep it in your diary under your mattress next to your rubber band roll of dollar bills that you took out of the bank in fear of the recession.
Now that that’s cleared up. I created this blog as an outlet for somewhat intelligent and hopefully intelligible banter and commentary about things that bother me day to day. It is also inspired by and in honor of my favorite Muppets, Statler and Waldorf. Ya know, the two old guys who sit in the balcony and heckle during the show? Admit it. You watched the Muppets and still have the VHS copies collecting dust next to your Duck Hunt gun and Nintendo controllers.
Welcome to The Balcony. I hope you enjoy the show. Cheers.
