every single time a college journalist has asked me for advice over the past year, this has been the biggest thing: find a hobby and nurture it. journalism will let you down at some point, and you'll want something to be there for you when that happens.

Based on my research the past few days, it looks like Richmond protesters have torn down more statues (4) than any entire *state* in the country in recent weeks.

The statue depicts a soldier holding a cartridge, which would clean a cannon before firing. It pays tribute to the service of the Richmond Howitzers Battalion during the years 1861-65.

The “both sides”-ism taught in journalism school and practiced widely fails the industry and audiences all the time, but inviting readers to debate about wearing masks as if both sides had equal merit is one of the most irresponsible things I’ve seen in a while.
