Gabby Siskind, Favorite Audio Piece

http://www.nytimes.com/packages/html/nyregion/1-in-8-million/index.html#

This is a package from The New York Times called "One in Eight Million," which features audio slideshows of 54 interesting people from New York. I really liked this one piece called "Lynn True: The Sports Fan." I liked this audio slideshow specifically because even though it is not the most newsworthy, I can completely relate to her. She invests all of her emotions into a football game, but after 3 hours it is over, unlike all of the other work and things we have to deal with in our regular lives. It is an escape for her, like it is for me. The other audio slideshows in the package were also very interesting. Although, once again they weren't the most newsworthy, but you get a glimpse into a person's life out of a city of 8 million.
