Excellent book for those wanting to improve journalism
Although he doesn't give any real examples of how to apply public journalism, Buzz Merritt explains the concept clearly and in a way that makes you realize how wrong the media is today. This book should be included in every journalism professor's classroom. If future reporters could understand what is needed by them, then maybe the public would start trusting the media and not lumping them in with the same category as politicians
