The essential guide to understanding and harnessing the tools of journalism today. This text shows you how to master the enduring rules of good practice and the new techniques of social media: the complete who, what, where, when, how and, most importantly, why. Sites and applications come and go, but their functions need to be fully understood before we can make the most of their potential in this new wired and connected age. This text gives a thorough guide to principles and practice, including: * how to find, write and break stories with social media * an online journalism toolkit to get you started * using crowdsourcing to find and follow stories * getting on top of user-generated content * the ins and outs of copyright and ethics * the new role of the working journalist * building your brand and making money * the new economy of journalism and how to get ahead. More than a simple 'how-to' guide, this book takes you to the next level with its cutting-edge level of integration between theory and practice. It is the essential one-stop guide for students and practitioners of journalism. We are entering the new golden age of journalism - and here is a great resource for journalists wishing to seize its opportunities. This is the book that untangles the jargon and sets out the route-map for how the social network can enable us to become major contributors to the multiplatform digital age. The right message, the right time - this is the right book for taking advantage of it all. Jon Snow Channel 4 News
This is a brave book. How social media and journalism overlap and interact is a vital area for analysis. It's a rapidly evolving part of the media industry but this book meets the challenge head on - with spirit and personality. James Blake Director, Centre for Media and Culture, Edinburgh Napier University
Social media has had a profound impact on the news industry. It has revolutionized the way the mainstream media engages with its audiences. It has given journalists incredibly powerful new tools to find, verify and tell stories and opened the means of publication to all. There is no doubt it offers great opportunities but it also poses great challenges and questions. What are the ethics and values of journalism in 2013, who controls the media and how can the traditional, big media build new relationships? This book is an excellent and much-needed guide for any journalist working in an increasingly complex media environment. David Hayward BBC College of Journalism
