It covers the core skills we all need in a fast-moving and challenging business.” Rob Kirk, Editorial Development Manager at Sky News. ""There is, more than ever, a need for a book...that takes us deep into the jungle of politics, ethics and the law. Well, here it is."" Jeremy Vine This exciting and comprehensive text takes students, trainees and professionals into the world of the modern-day newsroom, covering both key techniques and theory in detail.  The second edition has been revised and updated to include all the technical, regulatory and theoretical advances in recent broadcast custom and practice and is influenced by newsrooms around the country.
