More than reporting

Literature is the art of writing something that will be read twice; journalism what will be grasped at once. ~ Cyril Vernon Connolly (10 September 1903 – 26 November 1974).

I believe that every journalist must realize that their real role and the primary use of their craft is equip this nation and its people with information and knowledge that they can use to change their society.
