2. Did the reporters use follow-up questions?
3. Were the questions open or closed?
4. Were the questions related to the topic?
5. Were the questions asked clear and simple?
6. Were the questions asked superficial or pointless?

I have read and printed the questions for reference. I finally shelled out the $75 to purchase new ink.

And thanks Jacob for not making me feel left out..

This will be a very interesting little broadcast. Though I doubt they'll ask any of the questions I thought up last class.

Hoping for some hardball!
