Book Description

0872894703 978-0872894709 October 18, 2007

The Poynter Institute once again brings you the year s best newswriting and community service photojournalism, showcasing the winners and finalists of the American Society of Newspaper Editors annual competition. The perfect reader for aspiring journalists, Best Newspaper Writing s exemplars provide quality models students can analyze and emulate.

With Poynter faculty running in-depth interviews with the winners, readers get a unique glimpse into how these reporters developed their stories into, in some cases, Pulitzer Prize-winning pieces. With more insight into the craft of journalism, this volume also features the ever-popular X-ray Readings, Conversations about Convergence, and the new Source s Say, wherein Poynter faculty speak directly to a story s subject, to get a glimpse of a reporter and his or her reporting from an especially enlightening perspective. Always covering the range of journalism, this edition showcases two new sections, one on investigative journalism and another on the challenges of covering war, both at home and abroad.
