"Any
work of art that can be understood is the product of journalism." - Tristan
Tzara
Through out my life I have been thinking about journalists more of attention seekers than anything else. I just saw them as the "annoying fly" that is just pestering throughout the day. It is amazing how wrong I was. Maybe I was just bias because of all the "craptacular" performance of journalists in Mexico. Sometimes it was just too painful to just sit and read the newspaper.

It was amazing to notice that now a days
journalism is not just about "getting the juicy story" out there. Its
more about informing the citizens what is out there and what is currently
happening around the city/country. It is just amazing how journalists impact
the society with just simple words. The way they communicate is more of an art
than just a performance.
When
ever I read the news, I feel like the journalist is, more than anything, trying
to speak to me face to face. The words just.... get me to a level of
understanding. Just the meaning and ways of communication make a symphony
of words through every readers mind. This past few months I have learned that
writing is not a dead art, but another method of communication. I have learned
that even visual communication has a major impact on the society. Photos and
videos play a major role in journalism, it just makes it more.... exciting and
fun to work with!
I
think sometimes we should just pause instead of judging because in the end we
will just enjoy what we 'hate'!
