Summary: "After the success of The Newspaper Designer's Handbook, Tim Harrower does for reporting what he has previously done for design: make it fun and accessible to newcomers. This handbook is written by an award-winning editor, designer and columnist who has previously taught at Portland State University and currently conducts journalism workshops. The News Reporter's Handbook emphasizes the basics, but there's a wealth of information on online reporting and packaging stories in more visual, interactive ways. There is also more useful information on feature writing - from stories to reviews and column-writing - than any other text."--Publisher description.
