At 7:00AM every morning, I wake up to "Good Morning America" on the tube and turn to my Droid to get my daily dose of Twitter feeds from The New York Times, CNN, Wall Street Journal, and Huffington Post.
I've been with journalism since my days at Escambia High, having worked on the first circulation of the Gator Gazette. My freshman year at UWF, I was fully committed to journalism, but we went on a break for a year and a half when I decided to explore other options. The option being legal studies. After that brief stint, I came crawling right back. Now, I'm writing for The Voyager. My relationship with Journalism has always been rocky, but the press has always intrigued me.
The press is an interesting topic to discuss. I've had my fair share of being on both sides of the spectrum, the subject and the interrogator. What I love about journalism and the news media overall is the fact that the industry is ever-changing. This progress can also be a downside to the industry due to the lack of career projection. I suppose that's why I'm not really set on a definitive career path. For now, I'm satisfied and content with knowing I'm sticking with journalism.
