The Elements of Journalism: What Newspeople Should Know and the Public Should Expect, Completely Updated and Revised (9780307346704): Bill Kovach, Tom Rosenstiel: Books. At a time when technological and financial forces are creating formidable challenges to journalism's traditional values, Kovach and Rosenstiel have written an immensely valuable primer on who we are, what we do, and how we should do it.-- David HalberstamThe Elements of Journalism is a remarkable book that does a superb job of describing the problems, articulating the values, outlining the risks, and offering understandable and practical ways to respond to the difficulties of the present state of journalism. The Elements of Journalism ought to become required reading for every institution (and individual) engaged in journalism. — Neil Rudenstine, President, Harvard UniversityOf the many books that have been written about reporting the news, this one best captures the shortcomings, subtleties, and possibilities of modern journalism. It deserves to become as indispensable to journalists and journalism students as The Elements of Style. — Tom Goldstein, Dean, Graduate School of Journalism, Columbia UniversityIn an age when partisan rancor and ratings-driven showmanship have crowded out the more subtle virtues of solid journalism, Tom Rosenstiel and Bill Kovach provide a timely refresher course in the importance of press fundamentals. They remind us that at its best, journalism is a high public calling, and all those who practice it have a deeper obligation to their readers and viewers than to the demands of the market. — David Talbot, editor-in-chief, Salon.comFrom the Hardcover edition.
