My Portfolio
My name is Anthony DiFilippo and I am a senior at Waynesburg University. I graduated in 2022 from Franklin Regional High School, where I spent three years in the broadcasting program. There, I was the sports writer for The Panther, the school newspaper. I directed an award-winning newscast during my senior year, a show in which I was also an anchor. I also write for Westmoreland County edition of the Tribune-Review, in the high school sports section. I have my own Pittsburgh Pirates podcast that I co-host. I was also given the opportunity to produce Plead Your Case, the sports debate show on campus.
My Story
When I was younger, I would love to randomly write and talk about anything that would come to mind. As I got older, I transformed my passion for writing and sports into my own podcast, City of Bridges, and eventually a potential career path. At the age of 16, I got a chance to start writing for a Pirates blog. When I was 17, I started writing for the Tribune-Review in a paid position. Two years ago, I co-created Cannonball Comin,' a Pirates and Steelers podcast. This past summer, I was one of five people hand-selected for a news internship with WKRG in Mobile, Alabama.
