This textbook covers the topics any new journalist needs to know as they
embark on a career in journalism in New Zealand. These include finding and
writing news, reporting specialist rounds (like politics and sport), radio and
TV journalism, media law and ethics. The book embraces the modern digital
world, with chapters on web-based reporting, digital news photography and
using social media to find and develop stories. There are also chapters on
reporting Māori affairs and reporting on diversity.
The book has a very practical focus. The chapters are all written by
experienced journalism educators and journalists, and include extensive
advice from working journalists. The book was originally commissioned and
published by the New Zealand Journalists Training Organisation, the industry
body that oversaw the training of New Zealand journalists. There are also
exercises available online for all of the book’s chapters.

All books are sent free by courier postage within New Zealand.
