Inside Reporting: A Practical Guide to the Craft of Journalism

This text does for reporting what Tim Harrower's "The Newspaper Designer's Handbook" has previously done for design: make it fun and accessible to newcomers. Harrower is an award-winning editor, designer and columnist who has previously taught at Portland State University and currently conducts journalism workshops. "Inside Reporting" emphasizes the basics but also provides a wealth of information on online reporting and packaging stories in more visual, interactive ways. It also includes more useful information on feature writing - from stories to reviews and column-writing - than any other text in the field.
