> Journalists need to make less money
It's not exactly a lucrative line of work as it stands. At the NYT, GlassDoor tells me they get paid $110k. It's a fine salary (although not quite so fine by New York standards), but that's at one of the most profitable papers in the country. The Orlando Sentinel apparently pays only around $50k.
- m-ee 6y agoLocal news often means a $50k a year editor managing a number of freelancers paid by the word.
- distances 6y agoIs $50k then not an acceptable salary in smaller cities if that comes with benefits? That would be quite a normal engineer's salary in many Western European countries.
- ImprovedSilence 6y agoNot at all, its well below entry level salary for an engineer, and not really a livabe income unless you rely on 2 incomes..
- asdfasgasdgasdg 6y agoAh, it's well above the median wage -- almost twice as high, in fact. It's not enough to live a life of extreme luxury, but to say it isn't livable is going a bit far.
