In classrooms bustling, loud and bright,
Teaching journalism, day and night.
Imparting truth, fact-checking, sources,
Riding turbulent information forces.
The art of words, they must learn,
As the pages of time slowly turn.
To discern between the truth and lies,
Is a skill much harder to apprise.
Engaging minds, so young, so bright,
A teacher's task, from morn till night.
From the basics to the ethics code,
Preparing them for the writer's road.
Fake news emerges, truth to smother,
Teaching them to trust one another.
Honest reporting, a fading trend,
A tradition we must defend and mend.
Social media, a realm untamed,
Where journalism's often blamed.
Teaching balance, objectivity,
In the face of rampant subjectivity.
For the pen is mightier than the sword,
The power of words cannot be ignored.
Though teaching journalism can be tough,
The impact of truth is reward enough.
