KBIA Adderall Story

Jessica Malnik

All of the KBIA stories were interesting and well written. However in my opinion, the Adderall story was the best. The reporter does an excellent job of intermixing quotes with his own narration. He first introduced the issue, which included some background research. Then, he had a quote from an Adderall user. This was followed up by quotes from an Adderall seller, and various expert sources. Overall, the order of the quotes made the piece flow nicely together. The story was well rounded because of the various perspectives. The story included the perspectives of a user, a seller and experts. The reporter, also, smoothly incorporated his background research, which added depth to the story. Finally, the story has smooth transitions with good natural sound. All of these things made the story easy to follow, interesting and informative.
