Chapter 103: A Good Or A Bad Thing
Keira looked at the studio admiringly. It was the last day of her internship and she was excited about how much she had learned during the time she spent there.
Every day, editors, reporters, producers and assignment desk personnel gathered in the morning to decide what they believed to be relevant for their respective audiences and stakeholders. During those meetings, she had the opportunity to take part in literally hundreds of different editorial discussions to evaluate the "newsworthiness" of stories.
She had learned a lot as a part of the newsroom staff.
’One day, I’ll become one of the best news anchors of that area,’ she mused with a bright smile. She often practiced alone when everyone had already left. It was a career she would love to pursue and excel with. Her main target was the primetime news program.
"Your graduation is near," said Mr. Holmes, the news director for the primetime daily news program, where she spent most of the time of her internship.
"Yes, Sir. I can’t wait to be a part of your team, this station..." she said smiling, full of excitement.
"I hope to see you soon then... Make sure you prepare well for the audition and pass it," he said encouragingly.
He believed that Keira had the complete package to be a good news anchor, not just because of her pleasing personality, beauty, and charm. He had observed her well enough during her internship to surely want someone like her in his team.
Keira absolutely loved a challenge. She often came out to offer help with hard tasks. Sometimes, he was even worried that something might happen to her. Field Marshal Chan would definitely bury him alive if she had one tiniest scratch on her, but Keira was stubborn and he liked it.
She thrived under pressure, she was someone who could think about possible solutions during a crisis without even panicking.
Keira was also good at handling criticism. He remembered when the staff often bullied her by saying that she was arrogant and was nothing without her parents’ name.
