N2  - Integrating visual and verbal aspects of storytelling, Dale and Pilgrim (both: journalism, U. of Washington) provide a crash course in modern journalism, where media are converging and so are job descriptions as editors increasingly operate as part of a team along with artists, photographers, writers, and technical production staff. Editors typically no longer work only with words but also decide which components of a story might best be told in pictures, headings, graphics, illustrations, or video clips. The text covers word fundamentals such as critical evaluation, grammar and style, and working with writers, and also graphics basics such as effective use of headlines, color, images, and typography. Points are well illustrated with b #38;w and color layouts from newspapers, magazines, and Web sites.
