Well, this post is late, but I'd at least like to introduce myself.
My name is Jorge Salazar. I'm a senior at the Walter Cronkite School ofJournalism and Mass Communication, with plans to graduate this December.
I've written for 944 Magazine, KPHO.com and Cronkite News Service. My work has been printed in various publications, like the Arizona Republic and The Tucson Daily Star.
I'm currently interning for the Phoenix New Times. I work on their arts and culture blog, Jackalope Ranch.
I'm pretty active on Twitter, jj_salazar, so you can follow me there.
As a journalist, I think media influence is a great tool for getting information out to others. Of course, at times the information can tend to be twisted by an outlet to reflect its own agenda. It's a necessary instrument in today's society.
I look forward to getting to know everybody and reading postings for this class.
Looks like you will have some good real life experience by the time you graduate in December! :)
