Journalist Heroes

            Yes, I do believe that the journalist from the watergate scandal were heroes. I think they're heroes because the journalist saved the life of journalist here today by finally spreading the truth in the newspaper. it was time we know some truth in the U. S.
           Imagine a world without those journalist, without the truth....*shiver*. Now would you rather have that or what we have now?

Detachement

            I think that journalism is too detached. This, to me, means that we should become more attached to the overall society. To do this we need to look more into the public interest and write about this. Journalist usually write about, Daniel Radcliffe (hint hint, nudge nudge :) ) or some celebrity instead of the actual news like the wreak from Hurricane Irene or Nate.

Right or Wrong?

            Do you ever have that gut feeling that something isn't right?The gut wrenching feeling in your stomach or the sick feeling.  I know the feeling as I am a journalist. As a journalist that sometimes you write a story and don't feel good.
             Also as a journalist you probably know about if what you're writing is right or wrong, for example,  if you were to write a news story about a celebrity that's very rude or embarrassing to them that you know is mean. Of coarse you know it's wrong!! (and if you publish it then I hope your gut hurts!!)

Journalism

            The mission in journalism is to entertain and inform the public. Journalism could teach new words to us as  we're reading the newspaper or just a blog. You could also learn about news or updated on the news from the past few weeks.  Also it may just give you a good, needed laugh.
             Lots of journalist like to use long words (my opinion from experience).

Flicker: The DIFFERENT ANGLE!!!!

            Well lets just say that, for some, Hurricane Irene left as quickly as it came. As it may have cause some major destruction in other areas, we were one of the lucky ones. In my area, really all that happened was some trees falling and some flickering of the lights. Although there may have been a little flooding on the golf course located in front of my house, there wasn't much anything to hurt anyone or anything. The creek risen to a substantial overflow but it eventually died down.

            The little streams on the street carried along trash which was then whipped away by the wind.  The worry of my parents driving home in this was immense but they arrived home safely and everything was alright.
me safely and everything was alright.
                

Flicker

            Whoosh. You hear the wind whip the side of the house, the banging of the trees, and the flickering lights. It was only 9:30 P.m. but the hurricane was tearing down the road like no tomorrow. The trees falling down and the creek overflowing, it was a very nerve-wracking experience. Then the lights start flickering on and off and I felt relieved when they came back on and i didn't have to reset my alarm.

          The golf course behind my house was drenched and little streams were carrying along pieces of trash and leaves from the fallen trees.  I couldn't sleep all night, the sound of  rumbling thunder reverberating through out the house; The flash of lightning making me jump too.
