[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yea, the journalism industry is in terrible shape. The only person I know who is a successful journalist (actually works for a major newspaper as a reporter) wasn't even a journalism major - she was a poli sci major, went to peace corps, started writing blogs about peace corps, became an assistant to a major editor (side note: she is also beautiful and very poised, perfect for an assistant role), then became a newspaper reporter. This is NOT a situation where you go to school, come out, and get a full time job reporting. Just make sure your child is really really realistic about that. Plus, a lot of people you see who are "making a living" as freelance journalists probably have family money.[/quote] Do you understand that saying being beautiful is a qualification for being the perfect assistant is very sexist and actually illegal, if said in the workplace?
