| Looks like it's down your alley, at least. You've always been able to take a current event and write it up so that the rest of us can read and understand it. I like reading your take on news articles and all that jazz. I have no idea about your job markets over there. Here in the states, it's a wonderful time to still be in school, waiting out the economy.

| It's better than a print journalism course, anyway. Just try to get some actual related work while doing your MA, so that you don't end up with just a degree and no real-world experience. Journalism, print or online, is really hard to break into and experience helps with that. | ||||||||||||||

 | Eesh, paying to go to school? Glad I live in Finland. The only thing we need to pay for are our school supplies and books. And yes, that includes universities.

   | This means you will complain about the media less?

| Probably because it's only one year of tuition and the rent on a house/flat! You don't have to live-in at university in the UK.

| Tuition alone is astronomically expensive in America. Housing costs are just an inconvenience by comparison.
