    Get Out!

    First, and most importantly, why the hell are you thinking about journalism as a career? THERE ARE NO JOBS. Those of us stupid enough to pursue this career decades ago are now stranded in a profession with about as much relevance as corset-making or steam-engine maintenance. Switch to a nursing major ASAP.
