The Book That Every Citizen and Journalist Should Read
“What this book does better than any single book on media history, ethics, or practice is
weave . . . [together] why media audiences have fled and why new technology and megacorporate ownership are putting good journalism at risk.” Rasmi Simhan, Boston Globe
“Kovach and Rosenstiel’s essays on each [element] are concise gems, filled with insights worthy of becoming axiomatic. . . . The book should become essential reading for journalism professionals and students and for the citizens they aim to serve.” Carl Sessions Stepp, American Journalism Review
“If you think journalists have no idea what you want . . . here is a book that agrees with you. Betterit has solutions. The Elements of Journalism is written for journalists, but any citizen who wonders why the news seems trivial or uninspiring should read it.” Marta Salij, Detroit Free Press
The elements of journalism are:
* Journalism’s first obligation is to the truth.
* Its first loyalty is to citizens.
* Its essence is a discipline of verification.
* Its practitioners must maintain an independence from those they cover.
* It must serve as an independent monitor of power.
* It must provide a forum for public criticism and compromise.
* It must strive to make the significant interesting and relevant.
* It must keep the news comprehensive and proportional.
* Its practitioners must be allowed to exercise their personal conscience.

Journalism and Democracy
2009/5/3
形式:ペーパーバック
Where are the Walter Cronkites of the world?
I don't know the answer to this question, but I have often wondered what happened to those highly respected, eminently fair, seemingly unbiased journalists who used to grace our television sets and newspapers.
This book, written by journalists on behalf of a group of high level, very concerned journalists, directly addresses in a most lucid and intelligent manner their belief that something is "seriously wrong" with their profession.
If awareness is indeed the first step on the road to recovery, this book bodes well for the development of a new journalism, one that is in sync with the electronic age and will, much like Walter Cronkite, inform us of the facts and encourage us to form our own opinions, as is our right and responsibility as citizens.
If you are concerned about our democracy and the important role that journalism plays in preserving it, I encourage you to read this excellent book.

An interesting, if sometimes repetitive, read
2010/10/17
形式:ペーパーバック|Amazonが確認した購入
As a journalism student, I found this book to be a valuable read. My journalism classes tend to be discussion-format with few absolutes and lots of conditionals. In that respect this book was worthwhile, if for nothing else than its laying out a sort of journalistic ten commandments.
The book can best be summarized as a state of the union address for journalists, examining the way things stand in the industry, how they got there and where they may be going. It does this within a context of a refresher course of Journalism 101 fundamentals, massaged and embellished slighty so that people familiar with the concepts won't simply skim over them. Some people may take issue with the authors' views on bias and conscience, but you can't say they don't make a decent case for them.
Most of the book will come as no surprise to anyone familiar with journalism today, but Kovach and Rosenstiel do a good job of delivering it in a concise and interesting way. In more than a few chapters they retread ground they covered earlier, which got a little annoying after a while. Other than those instances, the book is very well-written and is a good read for anyone who is involved with journalism, either as a consumer or as a producer.

Best book on journailstic values and the state of the trade written in recent history

This book is deeply informative and technical, yet it maintains entertaining elements and a can't-put-it-down pace -- I read it in less than a week.
Kovach and Rosenstiel get at the true meaning of what it is to be a journalist. They convincingly make the case for saving journalism -- showing that it is an imperative task if our democracy is to survive intact.
This book should be required reading for journalism students and professionals -- and those citizens who are serious about their news consumption and participation in our great democracy.
