Today's journalists need a wide range of knowledge, technical skills, and digital savvy. In this innovative book, experts on digital journalism share their perspectives on what digital journalism is, where it came from, and where it may be going. Addressing some of the most important issues in new media and journalism, authors take on history, convergence, ethics, online media and politics, alternative digital sources of information, and cutting-edge technology, from multimedia web sites and 360-degree cameras to global satellite capabilities. Digital Journalism is a valuable resource for all journalism students and an intriguing read for anyone interested in the changing technology of news.
A handful of other books have been written on this subject, but this very readable book is one of the few to give perspectives from such diverse areas of expertise. Highly recommended.
