Hi Chhaya Singh, Steps to Becoming a TV Reporter
Step 1: Earn a Bachelor's Degree
Gain Experience During College. Students who aspire to become TV reporters can begin gaining experience while earning their degree. Opportunities for hands-on experience in news writing and broadcasting are available through campus organizations including radio or television broadcast groups, school newspapers, and broadcasting clubs. Step 2: Gain Employment
Reporters may investigate leads and research information for a story, as well as report their findings on-air. TV reporters often report on-site, usually during a live broadcast. With proven experience, TV reporters from smaller stations often become strong candidates for reporting jobs at larger news stations, typically in bigger cities. Some reporters eventually become TV news anchors, while others become correspondents in specific areas of news coverage. Step 3: Join a Professional organisation
The networking and professional opportunities combined with work experience may provide reporters skills for career advancement. Career Requirements:

If you want to know about exactly the scope or career in mass communication or journalism, then you can visit the career page on website www.masscommunicator.in. And, now your question is for print and TV journalism or acting and anchoring, then you already know in all over India, there are more than 1 Lacs publications of all language, period based in the era of increasing number of news channels. But, still this print media industry is going smooth as usual. It shows that there are a number of opportunities in print journalism as well as TV Journalism. If you talk about acting and anchoring, then dear first try to find out yourself. Either you are good in acting or anchoring, because both field are really good, but success rate or period is really slow. You have to give many of years with passionate will power for both field then only you can grab opportunities in acting and anchoring.

Dear, According to my experience, I always suggest for a job to the students of mass comm after the graduation or Masters or other course. Because no one campus can give you actual industry exposure in their premises only which you can get in industry during your job. Even with you job, you can continue your higher study on distance learning. Because our media industry wants practical experience. It doesn't matter either you qualify your exams of degree through regular course or distance one. So if you already done a course related to media one, then I suggest you should move for job only and take admission on distance learning from any university of India or other one.
