This could come as a surprise for some of you but at the end of the day you have to face the reality. According to the Bureau of labor statistics, this field is projected to experience a 13 percent drop in their numbers by 2022. Newspaper journalists are the individuals who research and write stories for national, regional and local press. As well as news and politics, they report on sports, arts and culture, science and business.
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.
