Creative Editing for Print Media (Wadsworth Series in Mass Communication & Journalism)

This basic introduction to print journalism editing recognizes that journalism students need to learn editorial skills even though they may not become editors. The authors begin with an overview of the editors role in journalism and introduce editing as a creative, vital profession (within the context of the many changes going on in newspapers). Exercises are located throughout the text and on the disk, eliminating the need for a separate workbook.
