Good evening, my intelligent little internet ferrets, i have a question to pose to you all. I have been lining up all of my final highschool courses in order to correspond to a University degree and further career in Journalism, and I am growing a little worried. With magazines and newspapers closing left and right, is there really a viable option left for Journalists like myself? If you need more details, I'm looking more towards music journalism than game journalism and am not adverse to online-only establishments but do prefer actual print journalism. Thanks for your responses.

Depends on you're definition of journalism is. According to my definition, journalism died with Murrow.

Doing something is easy. Finding someone to pay you to do something is much much harder. Its a rough field out there man, especially if you are just starting out and the industry being in so much flux.

Good luck to ya. I would say that it's worth a shot but you will have to go into it 100% and be prepared to do a LOT of work for free to make the right connections, impress the right people, and build on your writing. Don't expect to walk out of school with a Journalism degree get a job like that. Interning somewhere is probably your best bet.

I would agree with this statement, except for me, sub out Murrow with Cronkite.

Journalism is a tricky profession, to put it lightly. With technology advancing quickly and print media going the way of the dinosaur, the world just wants the facts as quickly as possible, with lesser regard to accuracy. Feature-rich articles that are well written and thoroughly investigated are few and far between.

I wish you nothing but the best of luck, good sir.

If you live outside America you should get real friendly with the idea of living paycheck to paycheck as a freelancer. It's next to impossible to get a full out job as a journalist outside of the States, and it's next to impossible to get a work permit to work inside the States if you aren't a citizen.
