Write an outline for your final investigative story, following the guidelines below (due next Thursday, 4/20, by the beginning of class).
1: Start with the pitch, which should include your problem and central question.
2: Say who was harmed and how. Be specific. Include names and quotes.
3: Say who was responsible (it may be more than one person/company/government office). Again, be specific, with names and quotes whenever possible.
4: Clarify how this problem is systemic. Why should your audience care about this story?
5: Include at least 10 research sources in your outline. These should be links, if possible. You do not have to write formal footnotes or a bibliography—just links that I can click on to see the source.
6: You can Slack me your outline anytime before midnight Wednesday if you want my feedback on it before you present it in class.
7: Submit your outline on Brightspace by the beginning of class next week. Also have it in front of you during next week's class, as we will workshop some outlines in class.
