520 _aWhy be a journalist? It can be a difficult job with long hours, hard work, and an uncertain future. Journalists face relentless criticism and an industry in transition. Aaron Chimbel has put together a collection of essays from working journalists who answer the question - why be a journalist? - with their personal stories of coming up, toiling in the field, and writing important, career-defining stories. These journalists come from different mediums, beats, and locations, offering varying accounts of the travails and rewards of being a working journalist across changing landscapes and timelines. The essays in Why I'm a Journalist offer encouragement and wisdom about the path to being a reporter, a broadcaster, an editor, or a media professional. This is a collection for students interested in the field, early upstarts engaged with building their careers, and seasoned pros looking to learn from their colleagues.
