Life outside the newsroom: February 2006 Archives

Olivia Rousset and Staci Wolfe Australian journalist Olivia Rousset and Staci Wolfe ham it up for the cam in Lawrence, Kans. Rousset was in Kansas working on a story about intelligent design. While she was in the U.S., she also conducted interviews for a SBS Dateline story on Abu Ghraib.
We had the privilege of working with Australian journalist, Olivia Rousset over winter break. She came to Kansas to do a story on intelligent design for the Australian TV program, SBS Dateline.

Rousset was only here for a week, we helped her track down sources and arranged for transportation for her between Topeka, Lawrence and Kansas City. After working in Kansas, she flew to the east coast to conduct interviews for a SBS Dateline follow up story about Abu Ghraib. Little did we know that her work would end up on CNN - More images of abuse at Abu Ghraib.

Rousset is a true multimedia journalist. I know, I saw her in action. She researches, shoots video, interviews sources, edits video, writes text stories, and even blogs about her reporting experiences. The woman lives for good journalism. She is curious, conscientious and tenacious. She is an inspiration and a role model for today's young journalists. She can do it; so can you.
