Javier's presentation about news

In this class Javier talked about news, he's made a fantastic presentation. He shows us the picture of an old radio at his home from 1965.

When he talked about the Spanish politicians, the teacher said Pujol speaks very good English.

Javier went to another slide about cesta y puntos, you can watch the video here

He had trouble to make up his mind about  choose "cesta y puntos" or another video about  "Familia telerín" because this is very funny too.

  

Remember at 1968 TV is Black and White

Even though I'm not saying the most important point of his presentation, I can say that his presentation was really good. Javier is an electronic's amateur.
