Sports Journalism: An Introduction to Reporting and Writing
If you are interested in journalism /recent world events then this book is one you will want to read. It is a compilation of ground breaking news reports from around the world, often written under very difficult, if not life-threatening conditions, by a range of journalists.
The book also encourages you to look at the motives behind what makes the news, to reflect on what 'free speech' actually means, and to question why some very important and valid stories never make the front page.
