comprehensive coverage of both print and online news, including news design and layout, story structure, the role of headlines and leads, style, grammar and vocabulary
a range of contemporary examples in the international press, from the 2012 Olympics, to political events in China and the Iraq War.
chapter summaries, activities, sample analyses and commentaries, enabling students to undertake their own analyses of news texts
a companion website with extra activities, further readings and web links.
