Big Machines

Our class learned a large amount of knowledge about the newspaper when we visited the East Oregonian. How many newspapers they print a day is unreal. The machines that they print from and shoot colors of ink onto the paper are gigantic.They had garbage cans filled with newspapers that didn't turn out.
Daniel, who was our tour guide, said it usually takes him an hour to design one page. He showed us how the newspaper is laid out and designed. The E.O. will go out to the community, use the internet, and they will ask people questions, like interviewing to find out interesting topics to put in the newspaper. If they can't think of anything to put in the newspaper they come up with random topics, like squirrels, is what the lady there said. 
Someone asked something like, “Does it feel like you’re at work, when you’re working?”

The photographer answered, “ No it doesn't. I’m getting paid to do what I enjoy, take photos.”

I hope to go back to the East Oregonian some day and learn even more.
