[quote=Anonymous]Community journalism is definitely struggling, but I'd also add that trade journalism in DC is alive and well. There's so many trade publications because companies are willing to pay good money to know what the government is doing. Also, covering Washington as a journalist is a different kind of education. So much that goes on with the federal government deals with science (for example, DoD) and many of the subject matters (health, defense, energy, tax, for example) can be very difficult to learn as opposed to, say, writing about sports. The industry is definitely very negative, but depending on your situation (marriage, kids, etc), if you're willing to stay in DC for the long haul, you can "make" it.[/quote]
