内容説明
In News: Reporting and Writing, Lorenz and Vivian fully integrate coverage of writing for newspaper, radio, television, and public relations. News is intended for beginning writing and reporting courses in departments of journalism or mass communication, whether they take an integrated media writing or straight-forward news-editorial approach. This text is the first to treat broadcast news and public relations writing as integrated parts of the whole news spectrum, not as afterthoughts. Hundreds of examples of the best work by both professional and student newswriters add depth and scope to coverage of writing, general assignment reporting, news gathering, legal and ethical ramifications, and the application of news-writing and reporting skills to careers in mass media. Up-to-date coverage mirrors the latest journalistic practices and challenges, including a major section on computer-assisted journalism.
