Walter Burns: What were you when you came here five years ago - a little college girl from a school of journalism. I took a doll-faced hick...
Hildy Johnson: Well, you wouldn't take me if I hadn't been doll-faced.
Walter Burns: Well, why should I? I thought it would be a novelty to have a face around here a man could look at without shuddering.

This summer I've been interning at the television news affiliate, ABC 13 in Lynchburg. I decided to do this internship in hopes of learning more about the news business from the television realm and if its still something I want to do. So far, I can say that I truly love it, and now know more than ever that I want to be a news reporter. I was reluctant at first about whether this would be a career I wanted/could do. I couldn't seem to place myself in the same categories of other reporters, who go out in the field everyday with an aggression and intensity that I felt that I lacked. I have never been one to be very aggressive, mostly because of the negative connotations that go along with that characteristic, those being pushy, annoying, and self serving. However, since interning I've realized that aggression, in the right context, can be a very positive thing. To attain aggression towards something requires passion, and with that passion it can lead you to uncover corruption for the greater good or making one's mission to bring the world facts and news. Of course aggression to an extent. I above all will always be humane first and a journalist second. I do believe there is a mean that can be struck on the journalist spectrum between duty and human.
