UNC Hussman students win collegiate journalism national championships

The Tar Heels led the UNC Hussman School of Journalism and Media to its seventh overall collegiate journalism national championship in eight years and its 11th all-time. + One of the stories featured our own B Daht!

Written by Daniel Myrick; The Carolina Connection story on UNC’s Dean Dome arena host “B Daht” won the “Best Use of Audio for News Coverage” award. We salute Daniel for his accomplishments and for including B Daht this year! B Daht TV is happy to be apart of building excellence in journalism, beginning with children.

He said the recognition was a validation of his work in a media form he loves for its immediacy, intimacy and authenticity.

“When you go up and interview someone, you don’t just get their words, you hear the inflection in their voice, and you hear their emotions,” Myrick said. “You really hear what they’re going through.”
