While I do know there are certain conventions you have to conform to when writing journalistically versus academically, I don't think I have much of an issue. There might be some things here and some things there that I may need to tweak, but for the most part, because I have done academic writing practically all my life, and was exposed to writing journalistically when I was in high school, I can make the switch. If anything, I feel like I sometimes make my academic papers sound journalistic. When I do that, I have to make a concious effort to switch to "Academic Mode"- gotta bust out my fancy words and longer sentences.
