Many may not know but journalists have been affected by this pandemic. There are journalists that have spent years in certain departments like sports, music, etc. but have had to change departments since the outbreak. An article in the New York Times talked about a guy named “Ben Hoffman, a senior editor who has worked on the Sports desk for the last 15 years, has a background in news and pop culture criticism.” has recently changed departments due to the demand of needing more daily reports about the outbreak. This same guy that has never worked under any news briefing is now overseeing “Changing Lives, a live blog that told stories that spotlight the way the outbreak is rapidly transforming American life.” This pandemic in the past few months has impacted everyone's lives and it's just beginning.
