Career Q & A Interview: Part 2 of 4-Essential Jounalism Resources

Comm Creatives:

What are some essential resources (websites, books, trade publications and organizations) that you feel that all journalists should know about?

Kathleen McElroy:

“The best-read and most useful industry blog is Romenesko from Poynter, but I also try to read the Columbia Journalism Review and a few academic sites. The most important resource is following hard-news sites, TV reports or newspapers covering the world. You need to know the news more than you need to read industry sites.”
