The reputation of journalists is continually being questioned. Nearly every public opinion poll shows that people have lost respect for journalists and lost faith in the news media. In this fully updated and expanded 6th edition of "Ethics in Journalism," author Ron F. Smith provides a highly readable introduction to journalism ethics, and offers solutions for the many ethical dilemmas facing journalists today.
Utilizes dozens of new case studies, mostly taken from everyday experiences of reporters at both large and smaller newspapers and TV stations
Explores the practical ethical issues involved in developing sources, coming to terms with objectivity, and bringing compassion to the pressures of journalism
Considers the impact of blogs and the internet on traditional values of journalism
Compares journalistic practices across different free societies

In this era of media convergence, the second edition of "Editing Today" continues the evolutionary transformation of Martin L. Gibson's classic "Editing in the Electronic Era," introducing prospective journalists to the basics of editing and design by following a true story through these processes at a major newspaper, on the newspaper's Web desk, and on its TV outlet. Readers are guided through the fundamentals of editing both words and layout with contemporary software.

Expanded and updated sections address pagination, verifying information, grammar, wordiness, editing the hard-news story, telling the news in other ways, copyright law, design, Photoshop, page layout, and Web design. Through more photos, more examples, and more compelling design, the textbook and workbook of "Editing Today, 2nd Edition" effectively prepare journalism students and working professionals for the challenges of editing and designing in this era of media convergence. The related "Editing Today Workbook, Second Edition," provides practical exercises to sharpen student skills.

"Editing Today, Second Edition" is a first-class textbook for students and faculty in journalism and mass communication programs and a comprehensive reference for professional journalists
