Best Debate: NUS Affiliation

report informed the viewer of all the information they needed from one of the most important debates in union policy in the last 3 years. It focuses on the debate about whether York should remain part of the NUS, and also includes the other important motions in the Union General Meeting (UGM). The additional external interviews were filmed during the day before the evening debate, with interviews from representatives of both sides of the argument. The debate was edited to enable the viewer to witness the full arguments as if they were at the debate. All footage was immediately captured and edited after the end of the debate, with the report going online the same night. The quick turnaround meant the report was online before voting on the referendum opened, and before both other student newspaper articles. Consequently, the report was the primary source of information for students that wanted to know what happened.
