Tape Recording: Good Afternoon Senator. Yesterday the a young man was set to join the LA National Guard. An honorable move however the mom thinks something isn't right with the application. Namely the GED that her son never got but was a part of the paperwork to get in. A call was made to the recruiter who then begged the son to destroy the GED in question. Last night we broke the story of the recruiter in question thus putting the Guard into action to resolve the situation. Today the Guard is having a press conference to respond to the story aired on TV. Your mission, that you're going to accept because you have no choice, is to attend the 4pm press conference by the Guard and advance the story with 6pm PKG. As always should you or any member of your team be caught or killed we still want the story for the 6pm news. This message will self destruct in 10 seconds. Good Luck Senator.
So after attending the presser, got back at 5pm. Producer is told it won't be a PKG. VO/SOT is best we can do. No prob. Get the stuff in the computer. Call the reporter, "Stuffs in". "OK" on the other end, "Find a couple of bites that sums up everything and I'll get the VO to you". Like I said, "No Prob". I was paying attention to what was said. Pick a couple next I hear, "OK the audio is in the system we've 30 minutes to get it on". Now it's back to a PKG. No prob. I found the video from yesterday and I shoot some more stuff today. "Wait, I have to add one more piece of audio". OK. It's in time to send it to the sever with 10 minutes to spare. "Hold on, got to recut the first track." Less 5 minutes till show and the lead isn't ready. Audio is in, quick recut, send the story to the sever. What happened next??

No truer words ever spoken, did you know?
Loved the beauty shots of the National Guard building, sign, and American flag, did you know?

Nicely done, but you might want to get a check on the acronym for Louisiana National Guard. I don't know for sure, but in my experience LNG stands for Liquefied Natural Gas.
