After listening to all of the
presentations during class I found out lots of interesting information on
journalists. I thought sway Callaway had the most interesting career. He gets
to interviews lots of famous people and learns about them and their lives. It was
inspiring that he was part of the “Choose or Lose” campaign, which encouraged younger
people to vote. He knew from a young age that he wanted to be a journalist
because he started doing talk show hosting and rapping at a young age, which I think
is inspiring.
If I could
match any of the journalist’s careers I would choose Adam Richman. I would love
to try all the different foods and rate them like he does. I think I would also
enjoy traveling around the country trying to find exotic food.
I would defiantly avoid having a career like Janet Cooke. She
wrote a great article that won her the award yet it was totally made up. Because
of this she ruined her journalist career and is currently unemployed. I would
not want to ruin everything I had worked so hard for by writing one fake
article.
Adam Richman also tries very gross food. He has gotten very sick due to some of the foods he has try. I must say he has a iron stomach. lol. If you cannot handle spice, his career would be hard to follow. He has tried Ghost Peppers, which are the hottest peppers in the world.
ReplyDeleteYour opinion about Janet Cooke, I agree with all the way. False news can be very annoying.
ReplyDeleteCourtney, I think everyone agrees with you when you say you'd avoid a career like Janet Cooke's. On another note, I wouldn't mind having a job like Adam Richman's, considering I love food.
ReplyDeleteI did Adam Richman, and it really was a blast learning and speaking about him. He is so funny, and he has a way with words. I agree with you about Janet Cooke. She didnt take her job seriously, and I would not want to bbe one of those kinds of journalist who have to make up a fake story just to be heard.
ReplyDeleteJust from reading what you had to say about Sway, I think you would love the hear that just the other night he got to interview Taylor Swift! I am not 100% sure if you are a fan, but I thought it was very interesting to see him in action just after I presented the project. I also totally agree on Adam Richman... If only we could get paid to eat...
