Reporting: An Introduction

The heart of journalism is reporting. Reporting: An Introduction provides students with the basic concepts of journalistic reporting: information, news, sources, observation, verification and many others. Each of the sections is short and written with the student audience in mind. Most chapters contain review questions, photos and links to other multimedia features. This book is conceptual, rather than being a workbook or exercise text. It is designed to get students thinking and talking about the important job of reporting. This book is part of the Tennessee Journalism Series, a set of books and instructional material developed by the faculty of the School of Journalism and Electronic Media at the University of Tennessee.
