I've always thought of myself as a critic, which gets me thinking... How do some of these people land a job being a critic for things such as music, sports, movies, and otherwise? Is it all about landing a job at a good newspaper and working your way up or is it much harder? What're your guys thoughts on this :P And what do you think critics make? I would love love love to be a critic almost more then anything in the world, ;P
