Walk into a newsroom of
journalists and you will smell coffee brewing and see people rushing for their
14th bathroom break of the day. You will see a business "about people and
why they do what they do, and what it all means".
That's how Jack Smith, a
72-year-old former newspaper reporter and editor, described it to 30 visiting
students from Auburn and Opelika high schools on the Auburn University campus.
While growing up, Smith waited
every day for the mail carrier to pull up in his 1939 Ford and drop the
newspaper off. "I'd read and study every issue, sometimes for hours on
end," he said. The stories and design of the paper began his love for
journalism.
His first route when he went to
college wasn't journalism though. He first wanted to become a civil engineer
until someone told him the amount of maths and physics involved. He then
changed to the business school, eventually making the move to journalism. Paul
Burnett, standing on the same place as Smith did during his speech, inspired
him while he was in college.
Smith walked up the steps to his
first job at the Montgomery Advertiser earning $50 a week. His first
task was to rewrite an article on Martin Luther King Jr.
"Those seemingly meaningless stories could be just as important as
a story on the front page." He told the students that it is a job that
needs hard work and they have to be eager to go and do all again the next day.
"I'm glad I didn't decide to
build the Golden Gate Bridge or take Wall Street by storm," Smith said. That
wouldn't have landed him a job that is so near his heart. For him, the sweat
and pain in the life of a journalist was worth every moment.
