History and context of Journalism!

The first lecture for history and context of journalism: Sitting the lecture theatre, it did feel like I was being spoken to in a different language and was finding it difficult to see the conection between philosphy and journalism. To be honest I was taken back a bit, and slightly worried as I have not studied philiosphy before at school or college. The module sounds really interesting, I am looking forward to discovering and researching the philosphers which we are given. Hopefully I will learn and understand the link between the philosphy and journalism. This should become clearer in the next few weeks.

I felt slightly aprehensive about the text we have been given to read and take notes from, Betrand Russell, The first few pages appeared daunting. I didn't understand much from the book and lecture and become quite confused. Though I hope that future lectures and seminars will help me to gain further understanding, and allow for an more open mind on the topic.
