ENGLISH FOR JOURNALISTS

"English for Journalists" is an invaluable guide not only to the basics of English, but to those aspects of writing, such as reporting speech, house style and jargon which are specific to the language of journalism. This revised and updated edition includes a discussion of the recent debates surrounding the use of standard English, the correct use and spelling of commonly used foreign words, a chapter on broadcast journalism by Harriet Gilbert and an updated glossary.
