On the other hand, the kinds of writings that most students will do in their futures doesn't really have to do with writing about something that's already been written.
"And if you look at what a journalist does in editorial writing, they're writing about something that's very topical. They have to find out information about that topic. They have to develop arguments for the newspaper's position. They have to be able to refute the arguments of anybody who's opposed to that. And they need to do it very quickly, and they need to do it in a relatively short way. You can't write a thousand-word editorial, for example."
"For seven years I was a member of the editorial board and an editorial writer for the Vindicator, which is a regional newspaper in Youngstown, Ohio. And because of my own academic background, I wrote editorials on anything from agriculture, science, education, medicine, local, state, national and even international politics. I also wrote most of the sports editorials, which the men on the editorial board thought was sort of funny. But I've written on football and golf and baseball."
