So, as of late, I've been quite interested in and considering studying journalism. I find it such a heroic occupation. The catch is, though, that I'd never be satisfied with a minute, pointless local TV waste-of-time, no-good, miserable job. If I delve into journalism, I'd want it to be something enormous: national or even international TV: something like CNN or ABC.
Also, I have discovered that Anderson Cooper is my hero. He's bold, intelligent, and daring. He's the modern journalist: honest, real, and very genuine in all of his reporting, and he can easily attract and persuade the audience with his approach.
He makes me think of journalism as a field of work that is made for Robin Hoods--protecting the weak and the poor by telling their story to the world. Mr Cooper is a hero, and by spreading the stories that he does so influentially, he gets my respect and deep appreciation.
Journalism is a field that looks more and more attractive the more I look at it, and at the same time, seems less and less reachable. It's a dilemma that I'm working on solving, and that is why I'm writing about it.
