who run the world?

hybrid journalists.

journalists, parents and friends will tell you that there are only two types of journalists.

those who write, and those who don't write.

they're wrong.

writer/reporter

news apps developer

data viz

illustrator

data journalist

photo journalist

documentary filmmaker

producer

finance

hybrid journalists = reporters who are really good at multiple things

hybrid journalists make both their skill sets relevant in a story.

combine data + empathy

save journalism (hopefully)

and just make life easier (office politics ugh).

hybrid journalists are important because they see things that others might not.

which is precisely what journalism is all about.

and that's why hybrid journalists run the world.

 cuz they can.
