Rogers (Bucks County Community College) begins each chapter with a particular beat--such as police, courts, or city hall--and provides tips for covering the assignment followed by numerous exercises designed to be written in less than an hour. He also provides interviews with career reporters, exercises for Internet reporting and news writing, and "beyond the classroom" examples of real-world stories that students can report.
