What is Journalism?

• What does journalism look like?
• Journalism is a compilation of facts and quotes to produce a narrative. A particular piece should convey a story from start to finish including all important events, and not leaving out critical points.
• Is there "good" or "bad" journalism?
• There is both "good" and "bad" journalism. Good journalism will accurately dictate all important features of a story with a proper flow. In contrast, poor journalism might relate a story, but lack description or decent order.
• Where do you see journalism in your life?
• Journalism can be seen in newspapers, editorials and blogs as well as other places.

• Talk about journalists you pay attention to.
• I don't really follow any journalists. I don't read newspapers, or watch the news; I only read occasional articles on the Internet.
• Why are you interested in journalism?
• Being able to write quality blogs and articles with a proper structure is skill I am certain I will use later on in my career and in college. 
• What are you curious to learn more about in terms of this class? Journalism in general?
• I would like to know better now to properly structure an article, and the best way to do so as well as writing excellent narrative pieces. I am also interested to figure out what exactly journalism is; I have an abstract idea, but nothing concrete yet.
