Editorial Review:

Product Description:
This successful book offers a simple organization, clear writing, abundant exercises, and precise examples that give readers the information about media writing and the opportunity to develop their skills as professional writers. Using a workbook-style format, it introduces and explains the major forms of media writing--inverted pyramid for print and Web, dramatic unity for broadcast, copy platforms for advertising, and the various writing structures required for public relations--and covers all major areas of media, including the Internet. Its basic and practical approach make it an excellent text for an introductory writing course.



Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great book!
This book has helped me tremendously in my class. I'm glad I bought it from Amazon b/c it was very affordable.





Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Using Book in Class
This is an interesting book. I am using it for my Writing for Mass Media class. The author puts at least 5-10 exercises at the end of each chapter for you to review the concepts which were talked throughout the chapter. Not really a sit down and read book, but does go over writing for media basics.
