I just returned from the 72nd annual California Scholastic Press Association workshop. This is a 2-week hands-on summer program for high school journalists taught by media professionals. We completed dozens of assignments that ranged from sports writing to a simulation of breaking news where we sprinted across campus close to midnight to interview sources! I learned from professional journalists who work in print, digital, TV, and audio media. One of the journalists I met there was Cam Inman who tells us about his journey to covering the San Francisco 49ers for the San Jose Mercury News, his advice to aspiring sports broadcasters, and what 49ers fans can expect this upcoming season.
