Chronicle TV Comes to Abington
The student newspaper to be featured
On Tuesday, Oct. 20, Chronicle TV came to Abington High School to interview the members of the Green Wave Gazette. After meeting with the student newspaper advisor Patricia Pflaumer for an interview, Chronicle Producer Ramen Cromwell and Channel 5 cameraman Scott interviewed and filmed the student members of the digital team: seniors Matt Lyons, Aaron Johnson, and Derek Tirrell who cohost and produce “The Weekly Wave.”
“Chronicle” will be airing a three-part show in November on education during COVID. The Green Wave Gazette will be in part II which will focus on high school.
Cromwell had reached out to Pflaumer in an email, stating that the Green Wave was chosen because “you’re part of a nationally recognized program that promotes journalism and I’m interested in how youth are telling their own stories during the pandemic.”
At the end of the Chronicle filming and interviewing, senior Derek Tirrell “flipped the script” to ask Mr. Cromwell questions about his work as a producer, as that is a field Tirrell is interested in exploring.
