Welcome Everyone!

Name's Huma Munir and I live in the United States of America. I am a sophomore at a community college and majoring in journalism. For some time now, I have been toying with the idea of opening up my own blog and so here I am! It seems as if these days, every aspect of journalism is being transferred online and there is no hope of flourishing if we are not ready to adapt the new and innovative ways of ever-evolving world. However, what's even more concerning is that people are deprived of receiving the best and the most non-biased news. Could that be a reason of why people refuse to buy newspapers anymore? Who knows? The fact however, remains. The concept of journalism is dying fast not because print media is dying and more newspapers are closing everyday, but because people have simply lost faith in journalism. It is simply not what it once stood for.  
So therefore, I will try my best to gather articles from all kinds of news sources and write my own non-biased analysis for people to read and form their own judgments about different issues around the world. Journalism should not be thinking "for" people, it should provoke people to "think for themselves."
