Today's video is a story from the people over at Great Big Story about a bank in Italy that accepts cheese as a form of collateral for a loan. 

If you have been following the video of the day here on TheVJ.com . you'll notice this isn't our first video featured from Great Big Story. We really like their stuff! It is well produced and shot cleanly, but most importantly they consitently get great stories (no pun inteded) and tell them great as well.  Each shot and line of narration sets up a question in the viewer's head that drives the story. You can learn just how they do this in our Storytelling Courses.

TV News’ Original Sin
January 08, 2025

My mentor in the television business was Fred Friendly. For those who never heard of him, he pretty much invented TV news. He was Edward R. Murrow’s producer for many years before he became President of CBS News.


In today’s digital era, platforms like YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram dominate our online lives with content created by influencers and creators making a lot of money with the videos they make. It’s easy to see why this is such an attractive career.


Local TV news is also in trouble. Viewership is down and the all-important younger demographic is not even interested in watching. How can we get them watching?
