Customer Rating:      Summary: Good reference aid for a community newspaper Comment: I work as a columnist and newspaper staff writer. The book helps our weekly community newspaper maintain consistency and a professional appearance. We are a tabloid paper serving a bi-county area in central Kentucky. I would highly recommend this for any person who writes for a newspaper, or any student of journalism. There are a lot of books out there on newpapers, but this is probably the gold standard for journalistic excellence.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Journalism Class Comment: Nice book for a journalism class. It got me through the course alive : )
Customer Rating:      Summary: oops! wrong edition Comment: Perhaps my mistake, but I wanted at least a 2003 edition, not the 2001 one I already own. The subcontractor told me I can return the one I got, but I presume it will cost me more in shipping than a copy would cost me here in town.
Customer Rating:      Summary: AP Stylebook Review Comment: The 2008 AP Stylebook is a useful guide to any potential journalist. It is necessary to know the ins and outs of writing and nothing articulates it better than this book.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Helpful Comment: This was quite helpful while taking a journalism course. It takes a few minutes to understand the layout of the book to lookup things, but once you get it, it's easy.
I think this book helped raise me a letter grade in my course. Anyone taking a journalism course with a strict professor or planning on entering journalism should get a copy. My textbook had a reference in it, but it was quite small. With the low cost of this book, you can't go wrong.
If you're taking the course without an intent to go into journalism, check to see if you can use copies from the department first.
