The Newspapers Handbook

the long version

"The Newspapers Handbook is the essential guide to working as a newspaper journalist. It examines the ever-changing, everyday skills of newspaper reporting and explores the theoretical, ethical, moral and political dimensions of a journalist's job." "The Newspapers Handbook encourages a critical approach to newspaper practice. Thoroughly rewritten for the third edition and using a range of new examples from tabloid and broadsheet newspapers, non-mainstream and local and regional publication, Richard Keeble examines key journalistic skills as the art of interviewing, news reporting, reviewing, freelancing and feature writing. Newly updated chapters from Henry Clother, David Northmore and John Turner explore the specialisms of covering the courts, investigative journalism and local government reporting."--BOOK JACKET.
