You have recently been hired as the news director for a local news station. It's time to prep for your first newscast. Your newscast will have five blocks and will be 60 minutes long. You need to cover the following in your newscast: Scores from last night's high school football games
A big storm that is approaching
The daily and weekly weather forecast
Information on a 15-car pileup on the main freeway in town
Your 10 on the 10, a brief overview of the 10 most important local stories at 10 past the hour
Viewer submitted photos
A reminder about an expose on local water sources coming the next day
You must also include at least three teasers and a transition from block to block. And don't forget about the four commercial breaks. They're three minutes long each!

Write out a plan for your first newscast, including both what is contained in each block and how long each block will last. Identify where your teasers, transitions, and commercials will go. Remember, some blocks can be shorter than others, if necessary.

OK SO I HAVE THE ANWSER BUT I NEED THE TIMES FOR EACH BLOCK OK

1st Block:
Last Night’s football games.
Scores from last nights high school football games.
2nd Block:
The daily and weekly weather forecast? Traffic on the freeway
Information on a 15- car pileup on the main freeway in town
A big storm that is approaching.
3rd Block:
A reminder about an expose on local water sources coming the next day.
4th Block:
Your 10 on the 10, a brief overview of the 10 mist important stories at to past the hour.
5th Block:
Viewer submitted photos.
Time Plan:
4commercial breaks = 3 minutes long = 12 minutes (60-12 = 48)
3 teaser = 1 minute long = 3 minutes (48-3 = 45)
5 transitions = 1 minute long =5 minutes (45- 5 =40)
5 Blocks = 8 minutes long = 40 minutes (40- 40 =0)
It should go:
Transition → Block → Teaser → Commercial → Transition → Block → Teaser → Commercial → Transition → Block → Teaser (last one) → Block ( last one).
