Real World - Journalism

One of the most difficult things in developing a blog is determining a focus. Blogs that cover everything in the world, as the first few posts of The Journey tried to do and as Ramblin' On will continue to do, don't have a specific enough interest.
This means only people who want your opinion will read the blog.
After a few posts, I know what my advantage is: I learn every day at work and am on a career path.
Taking this one step further, journalism students don't really know what is out there as they progress in their careers. Neither do I.
But I am going to give a glimpse into the learning process. The learning curve. This blog will cover a lot of things. I won't get into technical aspects of covering a meeting. These things, of course, are learned from people much smarter than myself.
But I hope to talk about the background of the way things work at a meeting and the first time somebody told me about meeting packets.
The content of off-the-record conversations, naturally, will be left off the record.
But the topic of off-the-record conversations and how different they are can be discussed at length.
Again, basically, it's not a "how to" as much as it is a "what to expect."
For example, I didn't go point-by-point and tell how to interview in my Cambodian post. I just told what effect the interview had on me.
