How is social media changing news?

Presence here is non-negotiable. It functions as more of a narrative shaping tool for publications and others.

Why did you become a journalist?

I would say my ethnographic desire to understand the society and also share stories about it.

Did you work for your high school newspaper? If so, what did you do there?

I did not. Post J-school, most of my learning has been on the jobs I've had.
