>>We don't need more journalists, plain and simple. I disagree. In a country with free press, journalists play a critical role in uncovering truths and disseminating the information among the public. The problem is that the vast majority of people with the title "journalist" today aren't really journalists. They're just brain-dead writers for news conglomerates and PR firms. And yes, getting a degree just for that is dumb. But if you want to become an investigative journalist, then getting a degree for it is a very good idea.
