Description
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Journalism Unbound's greatest strength is the author's use of masterful writing. Stephens uses great examples that should inspire any student."--Jennifer Atwater, Towson University "I really like the author's recognition of the value of studying the basics and the classics and how the field of journalism is changing."--Peter Ellertsen, Benedictine University at Springfield Praise for Mitchell Stephens' earlier books on journalism and media: "Thorough, scrupulous and witty; in all respects first-rate, and original, work."--Washington Post "Lively and original. At every stage Mr. Stephens's wide knowledge of his subject furnishes him with striking facts and analogies."--New York Times "A thoughtful and measured challenge, the kind of scholarship that helps push us forward."--American Journalism Review "Perhaps we should make our students dive deeper. Perhaps we should ourselves. This book does."--Journalism and Mass Communication Quarterly
