Abstract In this paper, I respond to a critical analysis of my recent work on definitions of and approaches to journalism as a profession by Tabe Bergman. At the heart of our debate is the division between structure and agency, and what our focus should be in teaching and studying journalism. An argument is made to address structures (of political economy) through agency (of working journalists).
