maybe someone who has more insight into the profession of journalism than i can help me answer some basic questions.
First: to be a k-state beat writer is it a pre-requisite that you must not have ever participated in competitive sports and demonstrate a complete lack of athletic ability
Second: as a k-state beat writer is it necessary to develop numerous hobbies (i.e. knitting, electric trains, comic books, chartered busses to strippers in topeka) to fill their days between stories, or does internet porn and the posting snarky dickheaded jabs at your customers through social networking outlets take up most of their free time
Third: how much does it pay to write three paragraphs of regurgitated message board content a week?
Four: I miss JMart (if only we had some substantial dirt on him we could use to force him to come back)
