Median Salary: $37,090
Hiring Outlook: -13 percent

This could come as a surprise for some of you, but at the end of the day, you have to face the reality.

The rise of online and social media is gradually sidelining the reporter’s job and has adverse affect on traditional news reporters. As the digital consumption of news continues to pressure newspaper and magazine publishers, as well as television and radio broadcasters, it's true that more money is being earned online. As a result, it's not enough to offset the revenue lost to declining advertising and subscriptions.
