Southwest Broadcast Newsroom Workshop

More than 150 broadcasters attended the Southwest Broadcast Newsroom Workshop, Oct. 4, 2008 in Austin at the University of Texas, School of Journalism.

Broadcast newsies drove to Austin from as far away as El Paso and flew in from as far away as Seattle just to see and hear from some of Texas best-known broadcast journalists as well as nationally-known speakers.
