"A journalist is a person who chrinocles life," said Kelly McBride. In a sense, she concluded, we are all journalists.

"Simply by telling stories," she said, "you will make the world a better place."

McBride explained that if you can turn information into a story, and know how to distribute it, "you can save the world."

She talked about the following steps in writing an article:
  • Bust Stereotypes
  • Explain Stereotypes
  • Help others like You
  • Explore your own World
She concluded her presentation by saying, "You will change the world by telling stories."
