I worked in printing for many years. Specifically, pre-press. Computers, especially the Macintosh, hit that industry in the mid-late 1980s. By the middle 1990s most of the high-paying jobs in pre-press were obsolete.
Then the internet kicked-in, and demolished what was left of the entire industry.
Journalism is a crappy field to try to get into, but the same source, the Daily Beast, regards as “useless degrees” Chemistry, and Mechanical Engineering.
But there is always room for some more Walter Durantys in the MSM.
The list:
1. Journalism
2. Horticulture
3. Agriculture
4. Advertising
5. Fashion Design
6. Child and Family Studies
7. Music
8. Mechanical Engineering Technology
9. Chemistry
10. Nutrition
11. Human Resource
12. Theater
13. Art History
14. Photography
15. Literature
16. Art
17. Fine Arts
18. Psychology
19. English
20. Animal Science
Yet the MSM tells us that internet and it’s ragtag band of renegade bloggers and other “alternative media” aren’t able to match their standards of “professionalism”.
It seems the market if voting differently.
They destroyed the newspaper industry. I know I was one of millions of people who used to enjoy reading newspapers.
And they are destroying the major TV news networks.
We need the Pyles of the world as much as we need the shingles.
If this guy has the top worst then what are the top best?
