Hi There,First of all thanks for consulting careerguide.comA very interesting question.
Its like saying I wish to write but I have no ideas.
I agree that you wont be working as a Journalists, who writes an article. Your job is to edit the write-up. But even to edit an article, how will you know what has to be kept and what has to be edited or left out.
Hence knowledge of all fields around you is a must.
And cutting the long story short, before you take the role of an editor, you need to begin as a Journalist.And to play a Journalists, general awareness is very very important.
As they say " A pen is mightier than a Sword", which clearly means that you are the bridge between the news and the audiences.
What you write, should make sense to your readers, but at the same time, must follow and maintain the sentiments of the reader.That is the role of an editor.
Hope this answers your query.
Wish you good luck................
In order to post replies to the question: "How important it is to have excellent general awareness to become a Editor?"
