Print has segued into television, and television into the web. Journalism will always thrive on hard news; the best journalists on earth have to be reporters, or the editors who decide what to cover. First to come to mind are writers from the wires. They have the fastest writers around, like Associated Press’ acclaimed Ron Fournier. That is to say nothing of other kinds of journalists, from Oprah to Carson Daly, who have more time in their hands but not any lesser punch to throw. As it stands, journalism is inseparable from politics or government. To the credit of the dedicated cadre of journalists who report on politics, a US senator probably won’t care as much for TV Guide as The New Republic. To be a top journalist, one has to be a politics writer. Nowhere else is politics tackled grittily perhaps than in Washington. The Washington Post prides itself in two top male journalists, the feared investigative journalist Bob Woodward and the Pulitzer Prize-winning political correspondent and columnist David Broder. On TV, another top male journalist is MSNBC’s ever-ubiquitous Chris Matthews. Still anchoring on CNN after all these years, talk show host Wolf Blitzer is yet another. Male or female, there is no one like Christiane Amanpour, the widely acclaimed chief international correspondent of CNN. She has been elevated to the rank of celebrity for pluckily covering events at war zones like Iraq, Israel, Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Somalia, and Rwanda. Amanpour is best known for reporting on the conflict in the Balkans.
