Journalism: A Job I might Like When I'm Older


By Logan Sanderson

My very first time reporting was this year at Treaty Four for my English class. It was one of the best things I’ve ever done; I really liked being a reporter; I got to meet a really nice veteran named Tony Lerat and he told me about his time in the Royal Canadian infantry and many other things he has done.
Being a journalist seems like a job I might like to do when I’m older because for some of the job you get to do research, track down leads and you are partly responsible for making sure the people who read your article find out the truth about that subject. It was also a huge bonus that I got to report at Treaty Four because I got to see more of my culture first hand. The fact that I actually really like journalism shocks me because until I had actually done it I thought it would be extremely boring, but my experience changed how I look at journalism.
Reporting at Treaty Four was an amazing experience for me because I loved seeing all of my culture, just all the things that you could do. There is always music playing and the Emcee Howie Thompson was funny last year. My partner Evan and I had actually planned to do an interview with Howie, him but I’m glad that we interviewed Tony Lerat instead; he gave us a lot to make a report on, before we even asked him a question.
Overall the whole experience reporting and Treaty Four was pretty great.
