| Summary |
"The Journalist's Companion is the book for every journalist and journalism student's back pocket. Anchored by an annotated copy of the US Constitution, this slim and portable volume provides guidance, inspiration, and practical advice for being a journalist today. A veteran, two-decade front-line reporter, and professor of journalism for another twenty years, Christopher Daly has seen the attempts to silence and intimidate journalists. The Journalist's Companion gives reporters, editors, and students the inspiration to stand tall, and advice to work well, accurately, and fearlessly. Included in the book is a brief guide on how to file a Freedom of Information Act demand, a checklist for reporters and editors designed to increase the level of accuracy in their work, a primer on copyright and professional courtesy, and a short guide to staying safe while on assignment"-- Provided by publisher |
