reporter who covers breaking
stories, a video editor or even an
assignment editor who scouts out
the stories worth covering.

3.  As with most professions, you'll need to start gaining
experience as early as possible.
 If not, you can also gain experience by starting your own
online blog or podcast or by volunteering at a community
radio or TV station.
 While having TV or video experience is best, having any sort
of journalism experience is better than none.
 After college, get more work experience -- and industry
connections -- through internships or by freelancing for
smaller news stations or newspapers. For more information

4.  For writers or producers, you may need to compile a
document that demonstrates your best written work and also
produce a video reel.
 You may need to take several internships and be open to
part-time or freelance work to get your foot in the door. Also
keep in mind that working at a TV station is just one avenue
to pursue. Don't overlook jobs for Web-only publications,
prominent blogs with video channels or jobs for private
businesses that focus on video, film or even radio
production.

5.  The median wage as of 2012 was $35,870. You'll likely need
to work at a small-town TV station before you can land a job
in cities such as New York, Los Angeles or Atlanta. Landing an
internship -- typically unpaid -- at a station where you would
like to work can increase your odds of getting a job there,
although the competition for internships can also be pretty
stiff.
All journalists need to maintain a portfolio that shows the
types of work they have done and what they're capable of
doing.
