TFK Kid Reporter Evelyn Peng met the trailblazing journalist during an appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show, and the two later spoke about Chung\u2019s career. How did you get started with journalism? I had a summer internship working for a congressman. He got me interested in writing, because he was a former newspaper man. I wrote press releases and position papers for him. What enthralled me was watching the reporters try to get answers from members of Congress who didn\u2019t always want to give them answers. They would chase them down the marble hallways of the Capitol, trying to get information. Being on Capitol Hill was like sensing the beating pulse of a government. In your career, did you face any discrimination, either as a woman or as an Asian American? I have to say I did, much as I don\u2019t want to say that. When I started, it was apparent that I was different. There were not only very few women, but also there were no Asians. I stuck out like a sore thumb. How did you overcome it? I just decided that I belonged there, that they couldn\u2019t tell me that I didn\u2019t know what I was doing. What qualities should a good journalist have? The desire to tell the truth. A balanced take on every story. Using facts to create solid credibility. A curious mind that wants to find out every last little morsel of information. The ability to write well is critical to any part of journalism. A desire to work hard. Do you have any tips for me? I think the key in interviewing is to decide what your list of questions is, but then you swing with it. Start with the first question and see where it goes. Listen to the person whom you\u2019re interviewing, and then ask a follow-up question. If you feel like you\u2019ve gotten enough of an answer or a satisfying answer, then you go on to the next one. Or it can easily cause you to think of a new question. You\u2019ve had such a storied career. What\u2019s your secret? I never give up. I\u2019ve always found another mountain to climb and another goal to achieve. It has sometimes been debilitating, because I was never satisfied. But one thing I\u2019ve learned along the way is that perfection is not a worthy goal. Nothing is perfect. The interview was edited for length and clarity. The TFK Kid Reporter Contest is Open!

How did you get started with journalism? I had a summer internship working for a congressman. He got me interested in writing, because he was a former newspaper man. I wrote press releases and position papers for him. What enthralled me was watching the reporters try to get answers from members of Congress who didn\u2019t always want to give them answers. They would chase them down the marble hallways of the Capitol, trying to get information. Being on Capitol Hill was like sensing the beating pulse of a government. In your career, did you face any discrimination, either as a woman or as an Asian American? I have to say I did, much as I don\u2019t want to say that. When I started, it was apparent that I was different. There were not only very few women, but also there were no Asians. I stuck out like a sore thumb. How did you overcome it? I just decided that I belonged there, that they couldn\u2019t tell me that I didn\u2019t know what I was doing. What qualities should a good journalist have? The desire to tell the truth. A balanced take on every story. Using facts to create solid credibility. A curious mind that wants to find out every last little morsel of information. The ability to write well is critical to any part of journalism. A desire to work hard. Do you have any tips for me? I think the key in interviewing is to decide what your list of questions is, but then you swing with it. Start with the first question and see where it goes. Listen to the person whom you\u2019re interviewing, and then ask a follow-up question. If you feel like you\u2019ve gotten enough of an answer or a satisfying answer, then you go on to the next one. Or it can easily cause you to think of a new question. You\u2019ve had such a storied career. What\u2019s your secret? I never give up. I\u2019ve always found another mountain to climb and another goal to achieve. It has sometimes been debilitating, because I was never satisfied. But one thing I\u2019ve learned along the way is that perfection is not a worthy goal. Nothing is perfect. The interview was edited for length and clarity. The TFK Kid Reporter Contest is Open! Think you have what it takes to be a junior journalist? The TFK Kid Reporter Contest is underway! Apply by June 16 for a chance to report for our magazines and website.

Others value oysters as a source of precious pearls. But to Demi Johnson, of Gulfport, Mississippi, oysters are environmental superstars. \u201cThey\u2019re really important,\u201d the 15-year-old told TIME for Kids. A single oyster, for example, can filter up to 50 gallons of seawater a day, removing algae and harmful organisms. Big groups of oysters form reefs, which provide habitat for hundreds of other sea creatures. Plus, reefs protect against erosion. Demi learned all of this through oyster gardening. That\u2019s the process of raising oysters in cages for conservation purposes. When she started oyster gardening, in 2022, \u201cI knew absolutely nothing,\u201d Demi says. Today, she\u2019s something of an expert. This school year, Demi earned a master oyster gardener certificate after completing a free course run by the Mississippi Oyster Gardening Program (MOGP). Now she\u2019s spreading the word. \u201cI want others to get into this,\u201d Demi says. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to do a lot\u201d to take care of your oyster garden, \u201cbut the impact it has for the environment, it\u2019s great.\u201d BIG SKILLS Demi shows off her master oyster gardener certificate after training with the Mississippi Oyster Gardening Program.COURTESY SHANTE RICHARDSON Dock of the Bay Oysters used to be plentiful in Mississippi\u2019s coastal waters. But their numbers have seen a big drop because of human-made and natural disasters, such as oil spills and hurricanes. That\u2019s according to the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources. Oyster gardening is a way to help restore the oyster population. \u201cAnyone can get involved,\u201d MOGP research assistant Emily McCay says. All that\u2019s needed is access to a dock or pier. Demi started oyster gardening as a seventh-grade Girl Scouts project. When a hurricane damaged her troop leader\u2019s dock, McCay helped Demi find a new location. CAGE OF WONDERS One of Demi\u2019s nine cages is pulled from the bay, full of helpful oysters.COURTESY SHANTE RICHARDSON During oyster gardening season, Demi and her mom go to Schooner Pier, on Biloxi Bay. Demi has nine cages. \u201cOnce a week I go out there,\u201d she says. She pulls the cages from the water, one by one. She shakes each cage to remove algae and caked-on mud, then checks for predators, such as snails and crabs. Sometimes, she takes her oysters out for inspection. \u201cI just kind of wash them off and just see how they\u2019re doing,\u201d she says. OYSTER INSPECTION Demi checks on her oysters at Schooner Pier, on Mississippi\u2019s Biloxi Channel.COURTESY SHANTE RICHARDSON This spring, oysters grown by Demi and other local gardeners will be big enough to harvest. Demi will go with McCay to pick them up. Harvested oysters are then \u201cplanted\u201d on existing reefs in the Mississippi Sound. NEXT GENERATION Baby oysters, called \u201cspat,\u201d grow in an old oyster shell.

But to Demi Johnson, of Gulfport, Mississippi, oysters are environmental superstars. \u201cThey\u2019re really important,\u201d the 15-year-old told TIME for Kids. A single oyster, for example, can filter up to 50 gallons of seawater a day, removing algae and harmful organisms. Big groups of oysters form reefs, which provide habitat for hundreds of other sea creatures. Plus, reefs protect against erosion. Demi learned all of this through oyster gardening. That\u2019s the process of raising oysters in cages for conservation purposes. When she started oyster gardening, in 2022, \u201cI knew absolutely nothing,\u201d Demi says. Today, she\u2019s something of an expert. This school year, Demi earned a master oyster gardener certificate after completing a free course run by the Mississippi Oyster Gardening Program (MOGP). Now she\u2019s spreading the word. \u201cI want others to get into this,\u201d Demi says. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to do a lot\u201d to take care of your oyster garden, \u201cbut the impact it has for the environment, it\u2019s great.\u201d BIG SKILLS Demi shows off her master oyster gardener certificate after training with the Mississippi Oyster Gardening Program.COURTESY SHANTE RICHARDSON Dock of the Bay Oysters used to be plentiful in Mississippi\u2019s coastal waters. But their numbers have seen a big drop because of human-made and natural disasters, such as oil spills and hurricanes. That\u2019s according to the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources. Oyster gardening is a way to help restore the oyster population. \u201cAnyone can get involved,\u201d MOGP research assistant Emily McCay says. All that\u2019s needed is access to a dock or pier. Demi started oyster gardening as a seventh-grade Girl Scouts project. When a hurricane damaged her troop leader\u2019s dock, McCay helped Demi find a new location. CAGE OF WONDERS One of Demi\u2019s nine cages is pulled from the bay, full of helpful oysters.COURTESY SHANTE RICHARDSON During oyster gardening season, Demi and her mom go to Schooner Pier, on Biloxi Bay. Demi has nine cages. \u201cOnce a week I go out there,\u201d she says. She pulls the cages from the water, one by one. She shakes each cage to remove algae and caked-on mud, then checks for predators, such as snails and crabs. Sometimes, she takes her oysters out for inspection. \u201cI just kind of wash them off and just see how they\u2019re doing,\u201d she says. OYSTER INSPECTION Demi checks on her oysters at Schooner Pier, on Mississippi\u2019s Biloxi Channel.COURTESY SHANTE RICHARDSON This spring, oysters grown by Demi and other local gardeners will be big enough to harvest. Demi will go with McCay to pick them up. Harvested oysters are then \u201cplanted\u201d on existing reefs in the Mississippi Sound.
