Karen Carson in the Morning, WNEW-FM, New York City with News Done Right

News features, when done on morning shows, are a smart thing.  The items tend to about whatever is going on right now (very important).  But the goal should not be conveying news items and facts.  Because there are credible news sources all around you, the win of these features now come in the conversation that happens about the story and the commentary offered by those in the chat.  You will define yourself and create a connection point when you’re honest about whatever is being talked about.  Yes, there are exceptions to this observation (how a talent feels about what happened to Charlie Kirk is a total danger zone so avoid that, as an example).  But for most items, when in conversation, the most authentic reactions always appear, shifting your trending feature from fact-based to observation/opinion-based thus engaging the audience more deeply.  Here’s a dated, but very good example of how this should be done from Karen Carson in the Morning on WNEW-FM, New York City.
