Online access has changed how we live, interact, shop, stay connected, and even get our news. With fewer printed publications, reporting the news is no longer limited to those hired by local and national papers and magazines. There is a growing need for independent reporters , aka, citizen journalists, like you. From a 30 year veteran reporter, learn about writing articles, attribution, libel, the art of the interview and how to earn the trust of potential interviewees.
