A Quote by Kat Timpf
I was in the journalism program in college and had some internships in print journalism during the summers. The plan was to go to Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism to learn broadcasting after I graduated. I was enrolled and everything, but ultimately decided that I could never afford to pay back the loan I'd have to take out.

Journalism continues to go south, thanks to big media and its strangulation of news, and there's not much left in the way of community or local media.
