About this listen

Forum reporter Melissa Van Der Stad and photo editor Anna Paige join host Mike McFeely to discuss in-depth their recent story chronicling a night of homelessness in downtown Fargo. They followed 72-year-old Lowrie Hogenson for 16 hours to give readers an idea of what it's like to be homeless in our city.

The story humanized those living on the streets and along the banks of the Red River. It was a great bit of journalism that was educational, eye-opening and heartbreaking. You should read it. Here is the link: What's it like to be homeless in Fargo? Woman who sleeps downtown shares a day in her life.

Melissa and Anna walk us through how they did the story and what they learned.
