Journalism jobs making a comeback

The job market for journalists just might be on the rebound. A lot of the jobs don't look like a lot of the old jobs that were lost, but a job's a job these days.

This story from Poynter plus a couple of links within explain the trend.

In regards to how people get news, I asked my five students in reporting class today how they found out. The could all be traced to a form of digital media. Two on Facebook, one a text message and two heard from someone in the dorm and watched the president's announcement live online on news channel Web sites.

I found out this morning from my wife, who saw it on Yahoo! news.

How did you find out?
