Sky News
As mentioned on the ‘About’ page, I spent four weeks at Sky News in July 2009. While I was there I worked at Live at Five, Five News, Sky News Radio, Sky News Online and on the Home Planning desk, as well as shadowing reporters and cameramen. Below is the work I had published during my time on the Sky News website.
In the summer of 2010 I returned for a second stint at Sky, this time solely based on the website.
