Miami Univerrsity students look at "Immigration in Southwest Ohio" this week with special reports on WMUB-FM (88.5) during "Morning Edition" and "All Things Considered."
Ten Miami seniors produced the series as a class project in a collaboration between the station and Miami's journalism program.
Part one tells listeners about the challenges facing graduating high school seniors who speak English as a second language. Part two covers the challenges of undocumented workers on their path to citizenship. Part three examines the Butler County Sheriff's Office immigration enforcement powers.
The stories will air Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday at 5:34 a.m., 7:34 a.m. and 5:44 p.m. They will can be heard online at

Great. However, its so frustrating there are programs like this on stations that you can only tune in if you are less than 14 feet from the transmitter. Instead we have toilet radio at 550 and 700 and on and on and on!
ReplyDeleteOh good, a bleeding-heart slant from MU heads full of mush.
ReplyDeleteI'll be sure to tape it.
Based on the topics in the article, it sure sounds like Miami is teaching the age old reporting tradition of telling only the "correct" side of the story.
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice to be proved wrong, but I don't expect that to happen.
