It’s not easy, and I hate math, but I’m minoring in business for several good reasons. I don’t need to tell you this economy is in the dumps and this profession is in trouble. Adam Hemphill (@ahemphill), a freelancer and former CoPresser, says, “Journalism students should resolve to make their news organizations self-sustaining.” Your knowledge of the world of business will help you tenfold in landing a job — or creating your own (see next item). If you’re not able to take courses at your university, try the community college nearest you, or contact the Small Business Administration. They often give free seminars across the nation and are ready to give you advice. Also dig up information on the business side of journalism: I keep tabs on Poynter’s Biz Blog and NewsPay, Reflections of a Newsosaur, The Media Business and Monday Note as well as devouring the Project for Excellence in Journalism’s annual State of the Media report. (EDIT: I wrote a follow-up blog post: “14 of the best blogs about the news business.”) [...] [...] Take a business course, or five.

Great list…a needed resource as journalists in general, and students in particular, navigate the choppy (but exciting) waters of change in this business. Since I started reporting on local news on my site, I’ve found the appetite for reliable–and current–information on what’s happening (not just layoffs, but what comes next) is amazing.

We journalists… if there’s one thing you can say, we always want to know.

Keep up the great work.

Mark

But, I'd kick <a href="http://niemanlab.org" rel="nofollow">Nieman Labs</a> up to the main list. I'm a huge fan of their content, and their <a href="http://twitter.com/niemanlab" rel="nofollow">twitter feed</a> by Zach Steward is real quality. Cheers!
