New Perspective

I found a new perspective in journalism. I didn't realize how much work it was to write a simple story. There are so many different ways to write a story. There are different leads, and different ways. I don't like writing this way I'm better at fictional stories. I never realized how hard it was to interview a person and get the the information back. I have a new respect for journalists.
