Why Join the Journalist Training Program?

“GameSkinny’s internship has changed everything for me.  This is what I want.  Without the encouragement of my team, the helping words of Amy and Katy and the wonderful people taking time to read and comment on my articles, I might not be going down this path.” – Reilly
