The right words in the right order can change the world, and two words in my byline can slice my credibility.
'For the...'
For the, as in C. Jake Williams reporting FOR THE Deseret News. Not on behalf of or as an employee of, but for the DesNews.
Today my first article since starting my internship was published by the Deseret News. Two words out of 351 have me disappointed.
'For the...'
Disappointed, but not upset.
Nothing has really changed since yesterday. I'm still proud to be an employee at the Deseret News and wouldn't trade my internship for anything short of a full-staff position.
I'm still getting paid to watch sports and convey my enthusiasm for those events to which I am assigned.
Today I will cover a second high school baseball game, Payson @ Cottonwood, and tomorrow an article will appear within the sports section of the Deseret News.
Written hopefully in the right words and in the right order not for the Deseret News, but By C. Jake Williams (an employee of the) Deseret News.
You were there.
