<p>Journalism can be a useful thing to pursue if
A. It’s your passion (if it’s not it will show in your writing)
B. You can learn AP Style in and out, which takes quite a bit of time and
C. You pair it up with a speciality field - ex. you know politics well, or entertainment, art, etc</p>
<p>You won’t make too much money - but if it’s what you love then it certainly isn’t a useless field… That goes for any job out there.</p>
