The Handbook of Journalism Studies

The Handbook of Journalism Studies by Karin Wahl-Jorgensen

This handbook charts the growing area of journalism studies, exploring the current state of theory and setting an agenda for future research in an international context.

Contributors to The handbook of journalism studies should be congratulatedThey have brought together a text that maps the “key theoretical and empirical traditions, fi elds of inquiry and scholarly debates in journalism studies”. This is not a how-to-do journalism text. Rather, it is a scholarly reference book that provides an overarching schema for thinking about and investigating issues relating to journalism – past, present and future...It is an essential reference for journalism academics and students." -- Rhonda Breit, Australian Journalism Review 31 (1)
