Brussels journalists generally write for an audience that they know culturally well. This will help the
journalists in their job to provide stories of interests towards that particular audience. In the European case
an audience is generally a whole country. So Journalists generally tend to limit their market to a market they
know and understand.
The life of a Brussels journalist starts late in the morning and ends late. The time in the morning is very
important! use it to read foreign media and see how they covered your own stories. Reading foreign media also
helps with learning new languages.
