Working as an intern in Dhaka Bangla Channel (DBC News)

Abstract

To accomplish my undergraduate program, I had to do an internship in any print or visual media. So, I preferred to join in a TV channel. I joined at Dhaka Bangla Channel (DBC News) in the department of English Newsroom Editor Desk as an intern on 15th September, 2016 and worked for three months till 15 December, 2016. During my internship period, I learnt different phases of news production in DBC News. So, this internship report will present my experience of working and learning under the guidance of the journalist team of the Channel DBC News. Therefore, I have divided this paper into three major chapters. Chapter One will briefly introduce my internship process and progress and the working atmosphere of DBC News. Chapter Two will look at the history of television industry in Bangladesh and will also glance at how DBC News became a name. Chapter Three will encapsulate the phases of my learning at the DBC News. It will also talk about the different phases of news production in DBC News. Chapter Four of this report contains the Conclusion. I have interposed my personal experiences at DBC News in this account and also focused on the power of mass media in the age of globalization. Altogether this internship paper will bring out the stimulating journey that I have taken with the DBC News channel. I hope this paper will be a help to the new interns who wish to embark on their internship life.
