Pulling Newspapers Apart: Analysing Print Journalism

Pulling Newspapers Apart: Analysing Print Journalism explores contemporary UK national and local newspapers at a significant and pivotal moment in their development when some pundits are busily, if mistakenly, announcing their demise. The book offers a detailed examination of features which previous studies have tended to neglect, such as editorial formats, aspects of newspaper design, newspaper contents as well as the content of newspapers which is not generated by in house journalists.
