"James Lozada, 36, of League City, Tex., gave up his longtime career in broadcast journalism in 2006 to become a medical student and explore a new career path. Eight years later, he's now a resident in anesthesiology at the University of Texas Medical Branch at Galveston. Here, he explains what led to that choice: I found that sensational stories were favored over thought-provoking ones. I couldn’t see myself covering fires, murders and accidents decade after decade. It’s also a very unstable gig, requiring you to move frequently to excel. When I left in 2006, the news environment was changing from traditional to new media, and it seemed like an uncertain time for journalism. Reporters around me were getting fired, and I wanted more stability."
