You basically have to be willing to devote your life to journalism if you want to break in. Treat it like it's medical school or law school.
When interviewing for a job, tell the editor how you love to report. How your passion is gathering information. Do not mention how you want to be a writer, use the word "prose," or that deep down you have a sinking suspicion you are the next Norman Mailer.
Be prepared to do a lot of things for free. This sucks, and it's unfair, and it gives rich kids an edge. But it's also the reality.
The members of congress who are most outspoken against immigration reform all have something in common: They have overwhelmingly white congressional districts. [Note: Stats are from the 2010 Census and include people who identify with multiple races so numbers may not add up to 100%.]

Argentina, we know you love your native son, but he was all, “Are you actually kidding me, Buenos Aires?”

[He] got upset when he learned that they had made a statue with his image, and that it was placed in the garden next to the Metropolitan Cathedral to honor him. They say that, without delay, he grabbed the phone, called Buenos Aires' Curia and emphatically asked it to be removed immediately. "Get that right away," he told the priest who answered the phone. The request was answered promptly.

They're sweeter than regular strawberries, with a hint of pineapple. "Closely related to wild or woodland strawberries, the alpines are considered a gourmet strawberry. Producing throughout the summer, alpines are easy to grow, either in beds or containers. They are hardy to U.S. Department of Agriculture zones 3a through 8b." Buy them here.

You’ve changed your life for the better. And now you won’t shut up about it.
You’ll also tell them an alternate way to make it that’s much healthier — have they ever tried spaghetti squash? It works great and doesn’t have carbs! Did they know you can make a sugar-free, grain-free cupcake in their microwave in less than two minutes that also has tons of fiber? Well, you did!
All of them, even if it's something you've made before but have given a minor tweak. The message following the photo — which you've already posted to Instagram — will explain the ingredients used in said meal as well as the "thumbs-up" emoticon.
"Wanna grab lunch?" turns into "Should we just grab coffee or something later?" — a date to which you will bring your own packets of Stevia (Splenda? Pshaw) and ask for almond milk because soy milk may cause breast cancer.
You also tell them constantly about how often you beat your previous time records in your Nike+ app and send them screenshots of your achievement badges and route map, even though it rarely varies.
