This quarter we examine journalism. Journalism is NEWS. News is based on facts. It includes newspapers, news magazines, TV, radio, and internet news. We’ll focus on newspapers. Next week, you’ll start writing your own news stories. We’ll survey newspapers’ basic business model; the history of journalism; development of professional standards; historic successes and failures; current state of the industry.
