Establishing a Unique Identity in Broadcast Journalism
"People point to Connie Chung, and I certainly respect her, but it's important to establish your own niche. Instead of following someone, take a part of that person and incorporate it into your own. I want to be Sharon Tay. I have very high standards for myself, and I am my worst critic. As long as I know I put in my best, I'm happy." – Sharon Tay
