Getting my internship at Fox Television Stations has  changed the course of my career and my life.  Incredibly smart, talented people mentored me and  gave me skills in broadcast and digital that made me  a huge asset to my newsroom. Considering that I was hired full-time before even graduating—this internship was definitely worth it.
