At 26 years old, Troy Smith found himself laid off from his job as a reporter at the Democrat and Chronicle in Rochester. He was shocked. But he did what he had done his whole career. He got back to work. He had started a music magazine at St. Bonaventure University. He and a partner started a tattoo magazine in Rochester, and that got him noticed by Cleveland.com, where he now works as an entertainment reporter. Troy joins Brian this week to talk about his career in journalism, how his desire to be a sports writer was curtailed by a stint covering cross country, and what it’s like to be an entertainment reporter both in Rochester and Cleveland. Troy discusses how he ranked every member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, how St. Bonaventure prepared him for his career, and shares his rules for writing good online headlines.
