Book Companion SiteFor at least a decade, media prognosticators have been declaring the death of radio, daily newspapers, journalistic ethics, and even journalism itself. But in Convergence Journalism—an introductory text on how to think, report, write, and present news across platforms—Janet Kolodzy predicts that the new century will be an era of change and choice in journalism. Journalism of the future will involve all sorts of media: old and new, niche and mass, personal and global. This text will prepare journalism students for the future of news reporting.

Journalism educators who have been struggling to understand media convergence, its impact on the profession, and what to teach students so they can work in this new world, can now rest easier. Janet Kolodzy's Convergence Journalism: Writing and Reporting across the News Media does an outstanding job of explaining why and how journalists should offer news in a variety of ways to reach the widest audience possible. But it doesn't skimp on the basics, either, covering the importance of sourcing, interviewing, research, writing, and visuals, among other things, in a lively, fresh, and engaging way. Instead of having to cobble together materials from different print, broadcast, and online texts, educators now can use Kolodzy's book, which makes an important contribution to journalism education in general, and convergence journalism specifically.
