I think that's exactly how most students at journalism schools think. I went to grad school with about 200 smart, young, clever, enterprising people, and to the best of my knowledge, I'm the only one of them who's trying to do his own thing after graduation. Many reporters are all about being "enterprising" until it comes to who they work for, then they're happy to collect a paycheck and work for the advertising guys in the back room who make more than them.
