Print journalism has gone the way of the buggy whip.
“As I looked out on a sea of shining faces at the University of North Carolina School of Candlemaking on Tuesday, I couldn’t help thinking to myself: “Man, I’d hate to be you guys.”
My, how things have changed since I was in candlemaking school. Back then, there was a job waiting for everyone,....
It all changed in the late-1870s with the arrival of the light bulb.”
Same diff.
McDonald’s?
Not as wrong as he thinks. People still want good editors. It's just that they don't find them at far-left newspapers.
Yes, how things have changed in journalism school. The sad fact is that journalism schools and their journalism majors have long since ceased to teach journalism and their students become journalists. These so called Journalism schools are now Centers of Political Advocacy-of the Leftist/Socialist persuasion. Consequently, I suppose that there will continue to be employment opportunities for these sort of people within mainstream media (aka leftist) organizations and associated political organizations. But, then again, who cares? I certainly don't...
They go to school to learn to write that tripe?
The utterly stupid female affirmative action hires at the local rag always amuse me. I fully expect to read copy like:
See Spot.
See Spot run.
Run, Spot, run!
And I am never disappointed.
Redrum dot com dim sum smart bombs
Double cappuccino and a heart like a tom tom
Ozone long gone that’s it I quit
Natural inclination says enough of this
brat pack black jack heart attack crack
We need another news channel like a hole in the back
There’s a 187 on the 405
And we all go to heaven on a hard disk drive
Fate’s right hand.....I don’t understand at all
Probably replaced by schools of “Mass Communications” ....same BS different label.
What passes for “journalism” today is so biased, and those who work in the field so unconcerned with balance - journlism ethics would seem to suggest the coursework might have a future in the School of Business Administration.
