Features: This book is a skill training textbook specifically designed for journalism and communication programs in private and vocational colleges. It covers editing operations across various media, including newspapers, radio, television, and the internet. The content is divided into three levels of planning: macro-level strategic planning for the media as a whole, meso-level planning for columns and layouts, and micro-level planning for drafting, layout design (including manuscript selection, revision, headline creation, layout design, and image editing), as well as news editing for radio, television, and online news. The book emphasizes clarity in explaining "what is" rather than "why," while strengthening "how to do it," with a focus on skill training. It is highly practical. The book introduces an entirely new structure, consisting of 9 chapters and 25 sections. Each section is divided into three parts: theoretical knowledge, skill training (including case studies and classroom exercises), and reflection and practice. Supported by clear and concise viewpoints and rich, fresh case studies, the book provides practical and effective guidance for journalism and communication students to quickly and efficiently master editing skills.
