The book has three goals: to teach clear, concise and accurate writing; to teach students how to find reliable information about newsworthy events and issues and how to set this information within an understandable and meaningful context; to explain the workings of print, online and broadcast newsrooms and how the gathering and delivery of news are changing in today's increasingly digital and cross-media age.--From publisher description.
