Reviews"Reforming Journalism offers both thoughtful analysis and page-turning readability. . . Our culture desperately needs true stories, so if you want to understand why the news media are collapsing and how to tell stories that help people see the world clearly, buy this book." -- Les Sillars "Professor of Journalism, Patrick Henry College", "A compelling case for a journalism that tells the truth by embracing the principle of absolute truth and pursuing a clear-eyed view of human nature. . . Every journalist should read this. And every Christian journalist should see it as a clarion call to be the moral conscience of a wider culture." -- Wayne Slater "Former Senior Political Writer, The Dallas Morning News", "Marvin Olasky shows a way forward for news coverage with wisdom and understanding to readers. His timing is good. Old media companies are running out of money. New media entures are struggling. His proposed recovery is needed now more than ever." -- Russ Pulliam "Columnist, The Indianapolis Star"
SynopsisIs powerful, biblically principled journalism a lost art? In this three-part work on foundational concepts, practical techniques, and journalism's agitated history, Marvin Olasky shows us how to become citizen-reporters and discerning consumers of news., Is there such thing as "Christian" journalism? What would that look like? In this three-part work, editor in chief of World magazine Marvin Olasky (1) lays out foundational principles of journalism, explaining why and how journalism ought to be done, (2) addresses practical, nuts-and-bolts issues such as interviewing subjects, structuring news stories, and responding to complaints, and (3) closes with a historical overview of journalism in the United States. Throughout the book, he points to the example of Christian journalists in China, who courageously continue a nearly three-thousand year history of news reporting in the face of government pressures. You will learn how to be a more discerning reader of news as well as a competent citizen-reporter in your own community.

  • Journalism need not be left to the big names/ big media.

    The author's stated goal is to get more writers, young writers, into journalism, by teaching recruits in his living room! He provides lots of examples of good and bad journalistic writing, having edited World magazine for years. The book makes me think that, with practice, I might be able to do this myself.
