The two most common print media are newspapers and magazines, but print media also includes outdoor billboards, transit posters, the yellow pages, and direct mail. Print media is important because it can reach such a large audience, and the great number of specialized publications enable businesses to focus in on a target audience with a specific set of characteristics. Print media are allowed to advertise mostly anything, such as cigarettes, liquor, and contraceptives; however, many publications will not accept controversial ads.

I think there would be a lot of opportunities in print media and remember you don't just have to be a journalist to be in print media you can be a photo journalist, graphic designer, plate makers, ad copywriter etc. There are many more jobs other then these in print media. The main kind of print media is in newspapers and magazines these kind of jobs can be found every where in Australia and overseas.
