Radio journalism?

Two students from Marshall University placed high in a recent national competition for broadcast journalism. Both students won in radio categories.

Question 1: How many jobs open every year for radio broadcast news reporting?
Answer 1: Probably very few.

Question 2: If so, why is Marshall still teaching it?
Answer: Beats me. Maybe these kids get jobs in TV or in p.r.

There's an old joke that a lot of commercial radio stations have a 50-cent-a-day news budget. They buy the local newspaper and read it on the air.
