Guest Speaker

Yvette Walker came and spoke to our blogging class and like many others I'm sure she gave them hope for a Journalism career or really any Mass Comm. career because frankly news is news and it is beginning to be mostly internet. So why couldn't blogging become a reliable source for news? I think it can. I can't say that I'd find a career in blogging, but I would definitely read a blog that I thought had reliable information. I agree with her when she stated "Journalism is ego- free". I loved this quote because it is so true. If you have a huge ego who is going to want to listen to you? Not many people.

As for the Huffington Post being bought by AOL. I'm having mixed feelings. It could be a good thing or a bad thing, I can only hope that the Huffington Post doesn't change because of AOL buying them. This is just another case of the internet taking over the world.
