lol so i really like that your going to be doing news stories with your opinions i think you should stick to the LGBTQIAP (sorry if i'm missing any) but as well as other stories you know its a great time to do videos along the political election and such thats all the ideas have for now. I quite liked your drawing and there better be unicorns in the future cause i want one as a pet!
I love this!!! Im an MSJ grad student right here with you at NU and you are right on! So excited that you'll be a part of journalism's f***ing future with the rest of us. Looking forward to more!
About the video, great idea! Just make sure you follow on it ¬¬. I think "future journalism" has already begun, but it's still developing. About some news to report, how about the mexican drug war? =P I'm mexican and I've gone to Canada, so I've experienced first-hand the impression other people have and I'd like to know how people in the US percieve it. I'm trusting you to be biased and honest yet accurate and informed. I know it's a rough subject.
@aDemidovable11 Haha thanks! I honestly don't know enough about the Mexican drug war to report on it super accurately. It's pretty far outside of my field of study and knowledge base, but if I ever stumble across something that makes me more informed I'll def. keep it in mind!
I absolutely agree with you on the fact that journalism is changing and with this change comes responsibility for more effective and competent communicating with people. If we look at the way journalism as been carried since it begins, we can see a pattern of information that is misleading to the general public. I would like to see a more transparent and accountable media. I believe you have what it takes to be able to act as a sort of a force for change.
You are just too cute! I also love the way you can talk for 8+ minutes without saying "um". Anyway, since you are a liberal young student, I would love to see you do the opposite and rail against unions and dissect the Occupy Wall Street movement. That should be a challenge.
@nexttsar Aw, thanks! I try to remain as articulate as possible anyway :P And to be fair I don't actually know a huge amount about OWS, it doesn't seem super cohesive to me, but it's definitely topical so I'll try to see if I can think of a good way to cover it :)
Great point about objectivity. Even if I disagree, can at least respect people who are open about their opinions, but it's really annoying and dishonest when people pretend to be objective but are so obviously partial.
Don't forget when pamphlets were produced most of the Earth's population could not even read. As a result they had what were called towncriers. (They are now called reporters.)These were gentlemen who would stand in front of a town's population and read to them the news of the day.
That is a wonderful idea! There is only one thing that I can think of, how primary and secondary education are treated. The cuts that schools will have a greater impact on the children that are going through the public education system and they are unable to have music, art or theater classes. As someone going into the teaching system and someone who has firsthand seen what these progams do for students, I think that the public need to know. Thank you.
@Wizard7warrior Thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitely see if I can work on a project like that at some point. I'm trying to start out with things that aren't overly-ambitious but I'll definitely keep it in mind as stuff starts to move along :)

@westsideed Very true! Although I was doing a super rough overview and didn't know how to effectively draw a picture of a crier.
