Closely examining how the news media reports economic and financial
matters, this book equips students with solid methodological skills
for reading and interpreting the news alongside a toolkit for best
practice as an economic journalist. How to Read Economic News
combines theory and practice to explore the discourse surrounding
economics in the mass media and how this specialised form of
reporting can be improved. Beginning by introducing major concepts
such as financialised economic reporting, media amnesia and loss of
trust, the book goes on to help students to interpret, understand
and analyse existing news discourse and to identify subtle biases
in news reports stemming from hegemonic belief systems. The final
section puts this analytical knowledge into practice, providing
students with methods for the critical production of news and
covering such skills as identifying newsworthiness, story sourcing,
achieving clarity, and using complex datasets in news stories. This
is a key text for students and academics in the fields of financial
journalism and critical discourse analysis who wish to approach the
subject with a critical eye.
