How much would it take to be a journalist?

What does it take to be a reknowned Journalist?

• I study mass communication and I want to be a Journalist with a cause! Someone who's opinion counts and perhaps someday, god willing, a national figure! I know I have the drive! I know that my views aren't constricted! I have the capability to see things from someone else's perspective! My ideas are based on facts rather than whimsical stories that connects one dot to another. I don't see what I choose to see! I SEE WHAT I MUST SEE and then form an opinion! For most part, I'd say, my intellect level is quite positive. But I don't know HOW IT WORKS IN THE REAL WORLD?! How can I make it big?

• Answer:

  You can start with improving your communication skills and pay attention to spellings. Its RENOWNED and not reknowned. Probably Yahoo Answers too must have prompted you when you typed it wrong.
