Ethics are important in Journalism because they create guidelines for journalists to follow that help people from feeling unequal or outcasted. They're also important in making sure that media stays true and further helps journalists maintain a sense of equality.

Degree in Mass Comm will help you get a job in media. But to become a reporter, you will need more - passion, hard work, nose for news. Basically, you should eat, sleep and drink news to become a successful reporter.

Look from a higher perspective. These phases keep changing. Even if you think this is what is happening in India, previously also Emergency had been slapped in 1975 - but well, two years later the times changed. Journalism is something that will always stay - and so will the journalists.

Not necessarily. But having a degree in journalism acts like a cherry on the cake and betters practical knowledge as well as opportunities for the aspirant in question.

Hi, I wouldn't really suggest a distance learning course in Print & TV journalism - because it wouldn't give you the desired practical knowledge, which is a must. Journalists aren't paid really well - so if you're expecting engineer/doctor-like salaries, this isn't for you. But that being said, you'll be able to have a decent living with the remuneration they're given.

If your aim is to work directly within journalism, it is vital that you build up a portfolio of work and gain as much relevant experience as possible. Working on a student newspaper, magazine or radio station will be helpful. You could also start your own blog to develop your writing style and interview techniques.
