To become a reporter, you must have a good general education and an interest in journalistic topics. Ideally, you should have a degree in communication studies, journalism or a comparable course of study. You should also be able to communicate your ideas well and argue convincingly. A solid education in the basics of journalistic writing and research is also important. It is also helpful to build a good network of contacts to help you get started in journalism. Some media companies offer internships or other entry-level programs.
