A Long career

Hello everyone. My name is Brad Griffiths and I’ve been a journalist for 30 years. Yes, that’s a long time, isn’t it? I’m going to talk to you today about choosing journalism as a career.

I always wanted to be a journalist. I started a newspaper at school and worked on a student newspaper at university. I got a job as a journalist as soon as I finished university and I still love my job today.

Journalism is not for everyone. To be a good journalist, you need to write well. You need to write in a way that is interesting to your audience. As a journalist, you will have to write for different audiences, so you need to be able to change your style as well.

Journalists work very hard. It doesn’t matter if you are oversea, writing about a war or at home writing about local news. Journalists work long days and it can be very hard to find time to have a holiday.

You also need to be strong. What do I mean by that? Well, not everyone will like what you write. Sometimes people will criticize your work. You can’t argue with these people. You have to try to ignore them and keep working.

You have to be good at talking to people too. Journalists find out most of their information by talking to people. Not everyone wants to talk to a Journalist so you need to get people to trust you.
