Everyone's probably heard that there's a fine line that journalists walk between doing their jobs and getting too involved in their stories.

Everyone's probably heard that journalists have to "have hard shells," that "we just move from story to story" and "that we don't really care, we're just focused on making deadlines."

And that's partially true. Good journalists, in my opinion, need to try to be as empathetic as they possibly can, but there comes a point when we have a job to do.

We have to write.
