Review of AIDS in Rural Georgia


Producer Philip Graitcer has formal training in medicine and public health, and it shows in how well his features on health issues are produced. This piece covers a lot of ground in three and a half minutes, about the decline in urban cases of AIDS, with a surge in new cases in rural Georgia. The piece is a nice mix of interviews and narration, and Graitcer's delivery is spot on. He is a skillful editor, and presents a lot of information in a very listenable style. This piece would work well in any magazine program.
