It’s the easiest way to post quoted text to your blog, no matter where you find it on the Web. Just select text to quote, add your comments, then publish it instantly to your blog. It’s that simple!
A posting for an internship at The St. Louis Post-Dispatch newspaper and its website for a multimedia intern reads a lot like the job description for a 21st century journalist.
This new position is for a multidisciplined and flexible multimedia journalist who can generate and execute multimedia ideas. Ideal candidates will be able to hit the ground running and juggle all types of content and content mediums on deadline assignments. One day you’ll be shooting breaking news photos and transmitting live from the scene, the next day creating a Soundslide feature on a local music festival, the next day shooting video of a political rally for the presidential election.
No mention of reporting, writing or interviewing skills, though perhaps these are taken as read.
Given the way journalism is changing, these skills may become pre-requisites to succeed in the media. I’m glad to say that we cover all of this in the Master’s programme at the UBC Graduate School of Journalism.
