READ ALL ABOUT IT!


go to the news
     From one man taking photos to four people writing articles, to loving their jobs, life's fun when you're working at the East Oregonian! What if when you went to work you get to, go everywhere and do what you love? Well, that's what EO staff members get to do every day. SMS students of publications class went on a field trip to the East Oregonian to see them in action, for example they got to see how they lay out their newspaper to seeing the press that makes the newspapers.It was amazing to see the press and see how they did it. During the tour we had many questions, such as, how many newspapers do they press a day. Turns out they don’t just make the East Oregonian but they also print John Day's newspaper to Hermiston and also to Milton Freewater. I couldn't believe it! 
     After the tour we went to their meeting room which we asked the staff some questions. One of my favorite questions was, is it hard to come back every day after writing a story about a death or a car crash. They said, “ YES, sometimes we have to take the day off the next day because it is hard but we have to get through it, and go on.” When we were done I was thinking I love writing and maybe one day that will be my job. Like they say at the East Oregonian "everyday is different" so love it while you still can!
