Q: I recently decided that I would like to pursue a career in journalism but the problem I am encountering is that I have already graduated with a master's in history and have never worked on a paper of any sort or have any clips. What is the best way now to go about gaining the clips I surely need to get into a journalism school of some sort?

A: You do not need clips to get into a journalism school.
You will need them to get an internship or job, though.
I suggest you try freelancing just to get the experience and feel for journalism to see if it's what you really want to do before you go back and get the second master's degree.
