Laren Fuhrmann, public engagement director and reporter for the Wisconsin Center for Investigative Journalism had a few golden nuggets of advice for people looking into becoming investigative journalists.
“You have to have the desire to know the story behind the story. To be guided by your curiosity.”
“You have to show the impact the issue has on people. ”
If you have the time to background people. Do it. You better make the time to background people.
“Get to love awkward silences because they will be the ones to fill it.”
“You can teach yourself a lot of the stuff if you have the drive and the time to mess around with it.”
