Why study journalism anymore? A lot of my students have to be asking themselves that. The pay's terrible. The hours are long. And the ideals of the profession seem to be getting flushed (if they ever were there in the first place) by the suits who increasingly are calling the shots in the newsroom.
So it's worth noting that Robert Giles, in a new Online Journalism Review piece, has a bit of a silver lining for the Woodwards and Bernsteins of tomorrow. If you're studying journalism and want something to look up to, then give this a read.
