Copy Editors finding more of a market in Online Journalism

According to a research done by C Max Magee of 400 online managers and producers said that for online journalism, the most desired skill sets were relatively compared to that of print copy editors. I feel that the way that I'm going with in my major of Online Journalism is going to be very beneficial because I already know how to use photoshop and video editing software, as well as some dreamweaver and other html software. And by the end of my college years and I get my degree I will be able to do everything that most news jobs want. I think with the trend moving into the digital age and my abilities with programs to make and produce the internet news stories will set me ahead of most other people. I can take the knowledge I have of print newspapers and the story writing and copy editing along with the software knowledge should give me a big edge over others.
