THE PROGRAM

Cronkite News Service is an intensive professional experience for advanced print and broadcast students in Arizona State University’s Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication.

Top undergraduate and graduate students work in a downtown Phoenix bureau, covering state government and statewide issues. Print students report and write daily news stories, features, enterprise and investigative stories for daily and weekly newspapers and news Web sites. Broadcast students produce TV news packages for television newscasts statewide as well as for the school’s award-winning news program, Cronkite NewsWatch.

Two veteran journalists head the Cronkite News Service bureau:

  • Steve Elliott, a professor of practice, is the bureau’s director of print and digital services, managing efforts for newspapers and news Web sites. Elliott spent 19 years with The Associated Press, serving as Arizona chief of bureau and as an executive at AP’s New York headquarters.
  • Susan C. Green, a professor of practice, is Cronkite News Service’s broadcast director. Green was managing editor at KNXV-TV/ABC15 and, before that, executive producer at WABC-TV in New York.
