Room Rater: NABJ NAHJ Conference edition

We at the Latino Reporter have seen your kids, your dogs and random Zoom bombers crash sessions during the first-ever virtual National Association of Black Journalist and National Association of Hispanic Journalists conference. So, in the spirit of the popular Twitter account @ratemyskyperoom, which rates people’s rooms as they beam onto cable news programs from the comfort of their own home amid an ongoing pandemic, Latino Reporter staff writers Adriana Morga Oregel and Kimberly Cruz took NAHJ and NABJ members to task for the rooms they brought to this year’s conference.

From big-name journalists to our own Latino Reporter editors, our raters did not let anyone off the hook.

Adriana Morga is a senior at San Francisco State University, where she has studied photojournalism, political science and international relations. She has interned with Al Día, the Spanish language sister publication of the Dallas Morning News, and an on-call digital producer with KQED, an NPR member station in San Francisco. In the fall, she’ll serve as city news editor for San Francisco State University’s student newspaper, Golden Gate Xpress. Reach her at adrianamorgao [at] gmail [dot] com and on Twitter @adrianamorgao.

Kimberly Cruz is a senior at California State University, Fullerton, studying journalism. She has worked on the broadcast team as a presenter, producer, and reporter on the university’s Titan Sports broadcast. Reach her at kdianacruz [at] csu [dot] fullerton [dot] edu and on Twitter @kcruznews.
