Excerpt

Whether you are opening a newspaper, turning on the television, listening to the radio, or even surfing on the internet, there is always some type of information being reported and presented. We live in a world that demands up-to-date coverage of world issues, sports, and entertainment. In order to meet this high demand, the world needs someone to tell the story, and that is where journalists step in. The art of journalism has been applied for centuries as a way to create change throughout the world. Henry Anatole Grunwald once said that "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" (www.thinkexist.com). This is the task that Jennifer Mrozowski faces everyday.
