** For this class, it is required you keep informed of current events in sports. Do not simply pay attention to hot takes and rumors, but focus on how these reporters cover games, who they interview, the topics and people about whom they wrote. Start by following the following journalists on Twitter: Greg Bishop, Richard Deitsch (and check out his podcast!), Lee Jenkins, Sally Jenkins, Elizabeth Merrill, J.R. Moehringer, Jason Reid, Eli Saslow, Ramona Shelburne, Don Van Natta, Kevin Van Valkenburg, Dan Wetzel and Seth Wickersham.  

There are so many more... Feel free to share your favorites, as well!
