The trip to the E.O. was such a great experience. I learned a lot more about the newspaper process, creating articles, and what it takes to be in journalism.
One of the areas on our tour I found interesting was how the layout of the newspaper was. Also, it was interesting how they made the newspaper by hand instead of by the huge expensive machines.
I learned a lot about the people that work there as well. They explained to me that all the hate mail they might get from people, who read the articles, can be difficult to take but they have learned how to ignore most of it. They never really run out of ideas, but when they do they go downtown to see what is going on. Other times people call them to and give them ideas for stories.
Some of the journalists went to college, but not all. When they went to college they didn't know they wanted to become journalists when they started until later on in school. The journalists gave a lot of great advice, such as taking compliments but said that it is also important to be able to take constructive criticism.
Their jobs seem so exciting learning newsworthy stories everyday. What they do everyday, I imagine to be very stressful having a story out early in the morning. I enjoyed all the great advice, the tours of the printing machines, and the whole experience.
