Riassunto

With the newspaper's role in a state of fundamental redefinition, Newspaper Journalism offers a timely and up to the minute analysis of newspapers today, in the context of their historical importance to society. Drawing on their extensive experience in academia and also across local, national, mainstream, and alternative newspapers, Peter Cole and Tony Harcup write clearly and engagingly from both industry and scholarly perspectives, and contend that, far from dying, newspapers are doing what they have always done: adapting to a changing environment.

Recensione

Authoritative and accessible, Cole & Harcup's book should be essential reading for all journalism students
Mick Temple
Professor of Journalism and Politics, Staffordshire University

Cole and Harcup offer a powerful counterblast to those who see the newspaper as a fatally wounded creature in terminal decline. They present a wealth of evidence to demonstrate the continuing global significance of newspapers in a changing world, and they provide a sober and balanced assessment of the future of newspaper journalism in the digital age. This is an engagingly written analysis that bridges the divide between media academics and practitioners, and which is essential reading for both
Professor Justin Lewis
Head of the School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, Cardiff University

While not shirking collapsing circulations and the problems that beset the industry, Cole and Harcup conclude that newspapers are not on death row - cheering news indeed. An irresistible read for all print journalists
Bill Hagerty
British Journalism Review

Lucid, relevant and relentlessly forward looking, this is the best book around on the future of the newspaper in the digital age. Cole and Harcup is now required reading for all students of journalism and media studies
David Bradshaw
Head of Media, Canterbury Christ Church University

Anyone who has worked in newspapers never forgets the first time they heard the presses roll. Cole and Harcup's authoritative account conveys the pride and passion print journalism inspires amongst its readers, reporters, proprietors - and its critics
Sarah Niblock
Head of Journlism, Brunel University

Newspaper Journalism is not just about what's gone wrong with the industry but in many ways a celebration of why newspapers continue to be important and fascinating

Incredibly useful... Well researched, very well written, insightful and entertaining, this book is a comprehensive atlas of British newspapers... Mandatory reading for both journalism students and their lecturers
Verica Rupar
Journalism Studies

A welcome refutation to the doom-mongers... The key to this book’s understanding of the future of newspapers is their insistence that content is king, their assurance that well-trained and educated professionals will still be needed to provide readers with journalism, whether gossip, investigation, analysis or comment. They believe that providing material that is popular need not be the same as dumbing down and that high standards are the way forward in a world that can easily find low standards for free anywhere, anytime
