Final Blog Post

Over the past 3 months, I have learned so much about journalism in this class. We have talked a lot about how journalism is constantly changing.

We have fluctuated our conversations to past journalists such as Nelly Bly, to current journalists in Malta, to the current impeachment and how it is being covered.

But as the world changes, so does the journalistic world. In light of Putin recently naming journalists “foreign agents”, it seems internationally that the invisible hand is strengthening its grip on journalism. But the tighter the hand grips, the greater the resistance and need for freedom of speech!

As history has shown us, even when journalism becomes buried, the strong will always rise up in the name of truth!

As of now, I think that there will always be a need for journalism and journalists. There will definitely be a fluctuation in freedom of what can be written, but I pray that we will always have our voice.
