Introduction to Journalism
Introduction to Journalism
Description
Gwen Ansell's Introduction to Journalism has been the go-to textbook for university journalism classes and intern programmes since it first appeared (as Basic Journalism) in 2002. But newsrooms have been changing fast. This fully revised and updated 3rd edition retains all the practical hints, tips and real-life South African case studies that made the first and second editions so popular, but adds important new elements to reflect the media climate now. All chapters are linked to the relevant parts of the National Qualifications Framework. To meet the needs of multimedia newsrooms, each chapter now includes the foundation skills for convergent reporting: storytelling across media platforms, interviewing for sound; captioning online galleries, headlining with search-engines in mind, and more.
