How is social media changing news?
On one hand, it helps journalists get to news sources faster, and disseminate information faster. But this also applies to misinformation.

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?
No. I didn't.
What advice can you offer to aspiring journalists?
Grow a thicker skin.
When's the best time to pitch you?
