Here are some cold definitions. Journalism is using communications to convey news. Communication is a process of transferring information to a form of communications (speech, writings, etc) Journalists' roles are to report objectively without bias. Communicators can just push the points needed to be made.
Historically, the United States was built on Agriculture in an economic sense. By foundation, the United States is built on freedom of speech, right to an education, etc. Ultimately, the United States began with Agriculture and Communication. Today, most Americans forget about our agriculture involvement. We don't know where our food came from or the fibers that make up our clothing. We simply think it all just magically appears at the store. But agriculture is one of the biggest industry in the United States. California's agriculture alone is worth 36.6 billion dollars. As part of any country, things begin to change. The industrial revolution began. More objects and trinkets were being built. Manufacturing became America's powerhouse. More people moved away from farms to cities to find new promising jobs. Less lived off the their own land. Now manufacturing is dying and technology is the new boom in the American economy. As Americans we tend to focus on this new boom and have forgotten our agricultural past. But to survive, we still need agriculture. We still need food and clothing. That is why our agriculture past is still relevant to our present and future.
