The mistakes I made as a young reporter. I enjoyed this article in part because I myself have a thing that I've always felt a little weird about, which is that when I was the editor of the US Embassy in Moscow's community newsletter, which I had to write original articles for, I once wrote about a particular cultural exchange program using sources that were all readily available online...and then in the review process, they said I couldn't include some of it in the final story for Reasons. Anyway, all this to say that it is sometimes hard when you're starting out as a real person in the real world (I was 20 at the time) to know how to navigate those kinds of waters and mistakes are going to be made.
