Journos Paid Less Than Average Guy

Americans hate the media with a passion. So they’ll be happy to know that the average U.S. journalist—grrr, the MSM!—is paid even less than the average American . Do you know how much the average U.S. journalist makes? How much would you guess? Just guess. Take a few minutes and think about it. Now. How much would you guess? $31,580 per year, as of 2011/ Hamilton Nolan , Gawker. More here.

DFO: Mamas, don’t let your babies grow up to be journos.

Question: Do you have a journalism degree? How did it help you in life? Do you have a child who wants to go into journalism?
