This year was my first time at the Online News Association conference. With over 2,000 journalists in attendance, I thought it would be fun to ask a few of them some questions:
- Where’s the farthest you’ve traveled for a story, and what was it about?
- What’s your favorite blog?
- Who’s your favorite superhero?
- And finally: What’s the best piece of advice you have received so far in your journalism career?
