Journalism in trouble
This may be hard for everyone to handle. Make sure that if you are not already sitting down, you do so at this time (also keep all hands and feet inside the tram at all times, but I digress). Are you ready for this? Take it or leave it but journalism is in big trouble.
The writer behind “Carnal knowledge” lectures
Controversy in the field of journalism often keeps many journalists from writing what they really think, or even stating the truth because of the fear of the backlash they may receive from people who may find whatever subject they are writing about offensive.
Why do we not have a solid Journalism Program?
As Editor-in-Chief of The Snapper, I get to see journalism at work. The articles come in, the copy editors do a great job of fixing them up for publication, and the section editors compile them to be printed.
The Snapper is a paper for the students, by the students. The problem we come face-to-face with every day is the lack of journalistic knowledge. This is by no means the students’ fault. The program supposedly provided for us is hardly in any shape for students to follow.
