Opis

Specialised reporting has become a necessary part of the press because of the need to address the inadequacies presented by straightforward news reports. The society is getting more and more complex with time so are the people. Mere news stories are no longer adequate to address the yearnings of the complex human societies for complex angles to stories. Today, the diversity in the nature of media audience has necessitated variety of reporting beats which gave birth to what we now know as specialized reporting. Thus, there are various beats of reporting ranging from agriculture, elections, health, emergency, security, environment, women and children, sports among others. This book has substantially examined the approaches, principles and practices of specialised reporting. It provides an up to date framework and introduces students, teachers and researchers to the basic concepts and techniques of specialised reporting from conceptual to conclusion.
