The Los Angeles City College journalism discipline offers intensive hands-on instruction in print, video, audio, and digital news gathering and production for both transfer students and students seeking vocational training and an AA degree in journalism. Students receive instruction in broadcast newswriting, podcasting, on-camera reporting, blogging, graphic design, magazine publication, short form documentary production, recreational drone practice and mobile reporting techniques.The program encourages a newsroom culture of diversity and inclusion. Students are trained to produce fair and balanced portrayals of individuals from underserved communities.
The Golden Globe Foundation has generously funded fellowships to underrepresented students within the journalism discipline who demonstrate financial need and hardship; those who might be at risk of leaving the program because of economic barriers; or international students who bring a different point of view and voice to their work. Additionally, awarded funds supported production mini grants to help students gain next- level vocational tools, to prepare them for transfer and employment in the field. Golden Globe Foundation funds are leveraged to attract students of color and students of different abilities to journalism.
