Practising Journalism brings together experts from the field of journalism: journalists; freelance writers; lectures; and media practitioners to provide a comprehensive collection of current articles.

It covers areas including: gender and identity in the popular press; sports journalism; urban reporting; embedded journalism; censorship; and alternative media.
This book is essential reading for students of journalism and all those considering a career in the field.
PART ONE: THE CORE VALUES
PART TWO: SPECIALISATION WITHIN THE CRAFT
PART THREE: THE CONSTRAINTS OF PRACTICE
PART FOUR: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE FUTURE
Too focused on the current situation in India to make required reading, although still very valuable as an introduction to such a major global market and for comparisons between international markets and professional values and practices
