"Journalism still matters. How itâs done, why itâs done, by whom and for whom remain at the heart of this updated edition. Harcup draws on a rich diversity of voices to cast a critical, yet practical eye on journalism now, providing an indispensable resource for all who are interested in news."
- Dr Margaret Hughes,
"A classic text of journalism education that goes beyond the basics to ask the questions that anyone thinking of becoming a journalist really needs to consider. An ethical, entertaining and enduring read - highly recommended."
- Michelle Stanistreet,
"A holistic assessment of what journalism is all about, with plenty of enterprising interpretations of our trade - a word I prefer to â˛professionâ˛. I never met a more â˛unprofessionalⲠbreed than that of my fellow hacks. This book will, I hope, lead our successors both to question and rebel more than we have."
