My Urban Report's Interview with CNN's TJ Holmes

My, my, my. I have never had such an up close and personal look at this guy and he is charismatic and well...GORGEOUS!! BAM! Check out the co-host while he chit chats with the guest. I see a little 'tude there with her body language, arms crossed with a little pouty look. He NEEDS his own show...lol.

He talks about journalism and reporting and the people making editorial decisions in the newsroom and how it reflects on reporting in the community.

TJ on local markets: "I can go in there all day long and pitch a story in a morning meeting, a positive story that I think is important that's happening in the black community, but if the people making the editorial decisions faces don't look like mine, it might not be of interest. You have to fight it. You can keep going and fighting that good fight and convince them of one or two good stories here or there....they're not bad people or anything like that..they just don't see the world as I might see it or you might see it. The things that interest me might not interest them."

Holmes adds, students need to change journalism by wanting to work behind the scenes...most want to be in front of the camera on TV, and don't realize they can make great differences behind the camera.
