This is the companion web site for the seventh edition of Writing for the Mass Media.
The site has been designed to be helpful to both students and instructors who are using Writing for the Mass Media as a text in a beginning writing course.
This site follows the same chapter-by-chapter structure that is in the book. You will find additional material related to the subject of each chapter on the chapter pages of the site. There may also be some links that will take you to even more material.
This site is open to anyone with an interest in learning the basic how-tos of writing for the mass media -- whether or not you are using Writing for the Mass Media as a text. Anyone is welcome to use the material here and to duplicate it for classroom use. We ask that the site, the book and the author be given proper credit when that happens.
Any questions or comments about this site should be directed to Jim Stovall at stovall at utk.edu.
