Johnathan Cowden

I am a hard-working multimedia journalist, with a first class degree in Journalism.

I believe in fairness and truth, and that nothing is beyond accountability or criticism. My primary areas of interest are politics, anthropology, and geography. This is as well as general news reporting, in which I work on a regular basis.

I particularly pride myself on my ability to find stories that are underreported, especially those of an international and/or political nature. This penchant has greatly informed my work as a journalist. I believe that my ability to think outside of the box in this way and approach potential stories from creative angles helps set me apart from other journalists.

I strive to be a skilled multimedia journalist, believing it important for me to be as versatile as possible. I am confident in feature writing, news reporting, radio broadcasting, audio and video production, photojournalism, SEO optimisation, and social media management.

I have A-levels in English Literature, Media Studies, and History, all of which I believe to be relevant to my career as a journalist, as they allowed me to practice proper grammar, syntax, and oration, how to format sources and citations, and allowed me to receive a general overview on the media industry.
