Combining
practical 'how to' skills with reflection on the place of each specialism in the
industry, this guide features the skills needed to cover specialist areas, including
writing match reports for sport, reviewing the arts, and dealing with complex
information for science. The book also discusses how specialist journalists have
contributed to the mainstream news agenda, as well as analysing how different
issues have been covered in each specialism, such as the credit crunch, global
warming, national crime statistics and the celebrity culture in sport.
