Description
These works are inspiring. They are also instructive.
Interviews with these thoughtful creators of journalism will teach readers lessons in how to cover a breaking news story in the age of social media, like The Denver Post did during the Aurora shootings. We interviewed the reporter and producer who spent months of their own time building trust with sources to get a camera inside the courtroom. We go behind the scenes of investigative stories that were the catalyst for significant positive impact in their communities. One story helped increase state funding for mentally-ill children in Indiana and another resulted in an EPA investigation of chemicals used in flame retardants in furniture and baby products.
This e-book highlights and examines 10 award-winning works produced by creators from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, National Geographic, Chicago Tribune, Los Angeles Times, The Denver Post, The Times of Northwest Indiana, and "KCET's SoCal Connected."
Readers will learn how to improve their craft of writing and storytelling through these best practices with interviews with winners of the year's most prestigious contests including the Pulitzer Prize, Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award, The Livingston Award, National Press Photographers Association, Online Journalism Awards, American Society of News Editors, the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism, the Goldsmith Prize, the Gerald Loeb Award and the Scripps Howard Foundation Ernie Pyle Award.
