Internship experience as sports reporter at Dhaka Tribune

Abstract

Dhaka Tribune is one of the leading English newspapers in Bangladesh. The newspaper started its journey on 19 April 2013 and was founded by Kazi Anis Ahmed. Dhaka Tribune provides the readers with authentic and reliable news from all over the country following their motto “Breaking News. Breaking Barriers.” The daily is now currently managed by the co-founder and Editor-in-chief Zafar Sobhan, who is devoted to maintaining the highest standards of journalism for the readers. This report aims to elaborate on my 12-week internship experience as a sports reporter at Dhaka Tribune, one of the leading dailies in Bangladesh. This internship experience provided me with on-field experience as a sports journalist as well as gave me an opportunity to apply my theoretical knowledge from the Media and Cultural Studies courses I took at BRAC University.
