Gloria Moraga - Political Woman

CONTENT IS KING! CONTENT IS KING! CONTENT IS KING! That is a phrase that is drummed into your head when you are an inexperienced writer or reporter. It was for me anyway. After 20 years in television news, I moved into University PR, and by then I knew the Message is the most important element in Public Relations. Stay on message and you will succeed. However, it is NOT as easy as it seems. Not at all. That what this audio short is all about.

Political Reporter and Los Angeles Times Columnist George Skelton has been a newspaper Journalist for almost 60 years. He's traveled with Presidents and Governors and reported on major issues and political drama. I am a real political nerd, so I was thrilled to sit down and talk with him One-On-One about his career. And of course, I asked him for his communication tips for young Journalists and content creators. 

Thank you to Ponds5 for the royalty-free classical music. The music is Chopin-Bourree-Major-D.

Alan Miller is a former opinion writer who never hesitates to offer his opinion. And it's gotten him in plenty of trouble. And as he enters his 80's he has tons of advice for young professionals. Do what you love, and stop social networking and try talking to people face-to-face.

Barbara O'Connor is not only a 21st Century multi-media EXPERT; she is first and foremost a Communications Scholar. In One-On-One she discusses YouTube, cell phones and video games. But we also talked about Fritz Heider's Balance Theory; and B. F. Skinner's behaviorist theory of learning.

Skinner, a Harvard Professor believed that learning is a process of ‘conditioning’ in an environment of stimulus; basically, his research shows that students learn through reward and punishment. I say most parents will agree with that.

Heider's Balance theory is all about motivation, and attitude change. One good way to describe Balance Theory is the phrase: "The enemy of my enemy is my friend." I understood what Barbara was talking about because I've watched Alien versus Predator at least 1,000 times and the heroine uses that phrase when she joins forces with the Predators to defeat the Aliens. I know, I'm weird, but I love movies.  

Barbara's discussion was about all of us learning better communication skills. And she outlines ways so we can begin talking to one another.

Communication's Professor Barbara O'Connor knows what she is talking about. 

I really can't say enough about the great artists who are providing content producers GREAT MUSIC!

During my long, long, long career in communications, I made many, many, many mistakes. As I interview One-On-One guests, I will share some of my worst blunders with you. Some of these communications mistakes happened because I was naive or too trusting. Really, who cares WHY I failed; I'm sharing in an attempt to keep you from making these same dumb communications flubs.  

I also want to share all the great music on YouTube. "Vibe With Me" is running under my story,

Scientists say the first evidence of human communications on earth happened about 30,000 years ago.  That was when a man or woman or both painted on a cave wall. Fast-Forward to 2018 and we can communicate with strangers on the other side of the globe.  I love the digital revolution, but I also know I'm talking to people less and less.

One-On-One is about getting in someone's face but in a good way. I hope you will join me as I interview guests and we talking about ways for all of us to communicate one-on-one. Love, Glo
