"Journalism can never be silent: that is its
greatest virtue and its greatest fault. It must
speak, and speak immediately, while the echoes of
wonder, the claims of triumph and the signs of
horror are still in the air.”

Schools of Journalism
"A journalism school is a
school or department, usually part
of an established
university, where
journalists are trained. "Journalism
is the key to life," said one famous
Nebraskan. An increasingly used short
form for a journalism department, school
or college is 'j-school'. Many of the
most famous and respected
journalists of the past and present
had no formal training in
journalism, but learned their craft
on the job, often starting out as
copy boys/copy girls. Today,
in many parts of the world it is usual
for journalists to first complete
university-level training which
incorporates both technical skills such
as research skills, interviewing
technique and
shorthand and academic studies in
media theory,
cultural studies and
ethics.
