Review of Alcohol investigators catch 'em in the act


It?s appalling to think that adults who are fully aware of the law are willing to risk their freedom? all for an underage teen?s want to drink or smoke. Even though there was no ambient sound throughout most of the piece, my attention was constantly piqued. Underage drinking has always interested me as a non-drinker, and I have never understood how it?s possible if stores can?t sell it to minors. Noah did a wonderful job with the interviews and transitions? especially at the end when he includes an example of the procedure that Alaskan officers take. His tone, though monotonous, is very informative. He presents interesting facts in a way that makes his age irrelevant to his job. He sounds professional, and carries that professionalism throughout the whole piece. I enjoyed it and I hope that people everywhere could hear it. It sends a powerful message that underage drinking is serious and whoever takes part of it will be persecuted.
