After doing an anthropology degree, how does one think like a journalist again?

This is possibly one of the most difficult questions i have faced in a long time, in an exhaustive journey replete with lots of internal turmoil and professional catharsis.

Like me, has it gotten difficult for you lot coming from an anthro background too? Has it become tougher to look at the news as just the news?

I am unable to find the angle. The 'angle' has shape-shifted into a 'lens' and every incident has turned into a collectible...

...filed for a long-term interpretation of our human condition. Worry not, i am not thirst trapped by the idea of academic cool and intellectual inaccessibility. That is the reason why i chose to reassess my interests after my MA. I abhor language politics.

And reportage is the key to everything that anthropology attempts to do, right? But i still find myself a bit lost in this process of hurried news cycle reproduction. I am unable to wrap my head around the idea of filing a report which would otherwise go down as a field note.

I was always a long-form guy. And i demand that space for a poetic resolution in journalism. But it fails me how.
I am unable to think the news again. Perhaps i need to be kicked on my butt, off the desk and into the field.
