Fundamentals of Journalism

The “Fundamentals of Journalism” is a point of departure for anyone interested in the ever-evolving work of being a journalist, whether it is on a high school campus or in a professional newsroom. Topics covered range from the structure of news stories and how to interview sources to an introduction to photojournalism.

This book is specifically written for the staff of Brophy College Preparatory’s student newspaper, The Roundup, in Phoenix, AZ, but is applicable to all beginning journalism students.
