"After nearly two decades of teaching beginning newswriting, I can say without reservation that this is the best text on the market. It not only offers clear and concise instructions about how to approach this writing style, but also offers students copious end-of-the-chapter exercises that give them 'real world' experience in writing for the media."--Paula Horvath-Neimeyer, University of North Florida
