10 reasons for a bright future in Journalism

I think the first reason is the best reason.
1.) More access to more journalism worldwide.


What a great gift! Now instead of relying on our American media sources to provide international news, ( what little they provide) we can go right to the international source and get their local angle of the story.

Global education is right at your finger tips.

The next best reason, I believe, is that more voices are apart of the news conversation.

This leads to more fact checking and more amateurs helping professionals in investigations.

Never ending stories are also a great reason for a bright future in journalism. Rarely in traditional print media do stories get followed up closely and can spend a lot of space really developing a story. In the online world, you can do that, and easily.
