Does anybody have any experience as a journalist?

So I completed my Vice application with the cover letter and resume and I wanted to also send in an article with it. I contacted a guy i know who was heavily into graffiti up north as well as in SC. I wanted to do a piece on southern graffiti. This is a really interesting guy who has been interviewed for magazines in Europe and has done some really amazing work that he has shown me. He loaned me a documentary to kind of get acclimated to it. I've had brief conversations with him about it, and it really is an interesting sub-culture.

 

My mother was a journalist for 10 years in the Bay Area and has given me some pointers, but the plan so far is to go to a tag site and then have an interview afterwards. I'm not sure if he is still up for tagging at the spot, so i'll have to see. But he has also given me some contacts in the Asheville area, to show me some of the work his "crew" has done some years ago.  I really want to write an in depth piece but at the same time not incriminate anybody.  If anybody has seen the Banksy doc you will understand.  A lot of this stuff is intertwined with hip-hop music and skateboarding.

 

I'm planning on sending out a bunch of resumes to different companies with this article so any advice anybody could give would be awesome.

    • Easily. To be able to plug in a backup LT without much drop off from your starter? That could mean the difference between playoffs or sitting at home in January. Good/serviceable smart young and healthy LTs that won’t lose you a ball game at reasonable $$ don’t just come along every day. Picture next year… the team is scrappy and competitive, 4 and 3 record, second place in the South. Morale is good. devastating run game that Let’s our marginal defense get plenty of rest. We play the Bucs and win, going to 5 and 3, but we lose Ickey to a high ankle sprain. Atl loses that week and are now at 5 and 3 as well. There is no Ickey and no BC because we let him go… and we go in to Atl the next week for a battle of first in the south. Week after that is the Jets…. Now they lose both by 10 and 3, respectively, and fall to 5 and 5 going in to their bye week. Atl is at 7 and 3. Out of typical Panthers desperation, they try to rush Ickey back in to the lineup with a saints game coming up…  Back to good old Panthers football, always playing catchup. Another season at .500 and the fans sadly rejoice in mediocrity, when playoffs were in reach. This team always overestimates its ability to pick up quality o line depth in the draft or FA and it always blows up in their faces. Like Chuba, I see him as being part of the core that Dan is trying to build. Work on his contract now and see if we can come out with something mutually beneficial. I’d consider 3 yrs at $25m to be very fair. 
    • it would be great to have "double trouble" again, I even had a T- shirt for Williams and Stewart and the double trouble logo, was a great time to be Panthers fan. We shall see...
    • Sounds like a plan. Those are the teams we should be mimicking! lol
