Don’t forget that visual journalism is still journalism first. We want to witness as much of the story as you, so we’d much rather get in on the ground floor of the story rather than being asked for art after you’re done with your part of the reporting.

Really important project happening in STL that monitors air pollution on urban farms on North St. Louis.
“Monitoring air quality can determine if crops will be healthy to consume, said Thi Nguyen, co-founder of Climate Changents.” – at St Louis, MO
Urban farmers often worry that potential air pollution from the Mississippi River and from local manufacturing companies could harm the food they grow.
Here's how a local environmental community group aims to mitigate that issue in north St. Louis: buff.ly/42LnD38

Unpaid internships harm industries as a whole and disproportionately favor those from higher income brackets. This does not diversify nor support the talent pipeline into journalism.
Do better, @FOX2now and @NXSTMediaGroup.

Lots of folks are learning about Corky Lee because he's the Google Doodle of the day.
As it happens, a bunch of 4th graders in LA have been studying his work for the last few months and today put up an art installation inspired by the late photographer and activist.
