- Why Broadcasting? | NYS Broadcasters
WHY BROADCASTING? The people working in local broadcasting are fortunate enough to have exciting careers in an industry that serves local communities across New York State. Whether an on-air news anchor, on-the-street reporter, account executive, producer, or marketing specialist, broadcasters can make a difference in their community. Every year, students across the state are making decisions about their careers and man y are unaware of the opportunities in local broadcasting. As such, it’s time to reach the next generation of broadcast professionals. Some students need help landing that first job or internship, and that's where networking comes in. To remedy this situation, NYSBA has put together a library of short videos that describe what it is like to work in broadcasting as well as provide students with industry tips/advice. The videos are arranged by topic/profession and are less than a minute long. This initiative aims to encourage stu dents to select broadcasting as a career upon entering college!
