Genre Reading Group: Journalism
to
O’Neal Library 50 Oak Street , Mountain Brook, Alabama 35213
(from americanpressinstitute.org) "“The purpose of journalism,” write Bill Kovach and Tom Rosenstiel in The Elements of Journalism, “is not defined by technology, nor by journalists or the techniques they employ.” Rather, “the principles and purpose of journalism are defined by something more basic: the function news plays in the lives of people.”"
During this meeting, we'll explore all facets of journalism. Looking for inspiration? Browse and reserve on the catalog: https://bit.ly/2P0u4vk
