Offering a practical guide to all aspects of modern journalism, Essential Journalism is a key resource for anyone wishing to become a qualified journalist in the UK, and in particular, those studying for the National Council for the Training of Journalists (NCTJ) Diploma.

This second edition of Essential Journalism, written in collaboration with the NCTJ, covers everything you need to know about journalism today - its character, its ethical framework, and its practice across print, television, radio, online and social media. New and revised material includes the impact and application of AI, changing consumer habits, new working practices, safety and resilience for journalists, and developments in verification and the exposure of fake news. Rooted in the core principles that apply to journalists across all platforms, this book helps students develop an overall comprehension of the industry and understand the application and adaptation of traditional best practice to the demands of the digital age.

This book is intended principally for journalism trainees and students but will also be a valuable resource for seasoned practitioners and lecturers.
