Synopsis
Practical Journalism: How to Write News introduces the skills needed to become a journalist in the digital age. Easy to read, the book draws on interviews with dozens of working journalists. They share their thoughts on the profession and we watch them work – selecting stories, carrying out interviews, and writing scripts. There are chapters on interviewing, research techniques, and news writing. Further chapters cover working in broadcasting and online, media law, and ethics. Each chapter concludes with activities and a list of further reading and a glossary of terms is included at the end of the book.

Review
′A strength througout the book is the case studies in which practising journalists discuss aspects of their work in such a way that the case studies become learning by example. Certainly this is a textbook, but it is not aimed just at students; it is brilliant for anyone whose ambition is news reporting′ - Writing Magazine
′A fascinating mix of gutsy personal stories, unrelenting ambition and invaluable lessons from seasoned journalists in the field′ - John McIntyre, Former BBC War Correspondent
′I wish I′d had a book like this when I started′ -Mike McCarthy, Bureau Chief, Sky News, Manchester
′The chapters of Practical Journalism:
How to Write News are colourful quilts
of assertions, examples, anecdotes and
case studies that bring to life the practice
of good news writing and offer insights
into the profession of journalism. Each
ends with review question, exercises
and further reading... has much to offer to media and journalism students as well as
working professionals, especially
those in transition from one media
specialisation to another′ - Media International Australia
