What it's like working at the E.O.

During our field trip to the E.O. I learned that you get to pick what to write about. Sometimes you don't always get to do the top stories but that's okay  because some stories can be really sad like a car crash where someone dies. It can be hard and sad. That's why they have more than one writer. 
Working for the newspaper can be a challenge but they are

always up it. When you take a picture of a bird there is much more outside the photo you get to experience. 
There are so many papers the EO prints. They don't just print the Pendleton paper. They print for other towns like Hermiston, John Day and many others. It seems like it's a small boring job but it's much more than that. Some of them didn't start out as journalists and they did not even realize that it might some day turn in to their job. But it did and they love it. I would love to go back someday because it was a great experience and I could also talk to the photographer and to learn some tips.
