Digital story telling is most commonly known for being in the classroom.  Film producers and makers use Digital Storytelling mosty.  How a Journalist might be able to use Digital Storytelling is somewhat limitless.  A way a Journalist could use Digital Storytelling is by reinacting a scene of a crime.  This way viewers could see exactly what has happened and better prepare themselves from the same thing happening to them.  Also, Digital Storytelling helps with weather warnings.  If a hurricane or bad storm comes thhrough the news edia uses Digital storytelling to show viewers the location and destination of it.
