Synopsis

A pragmatic guide for both students of journalism and practicing professionals, the book shares experiences, tips and techniques from some 70 journalists -- all dealing with interviewing and the actual mechanics of information-gathering. Some extraordinary approaches appear in the book, such as the National Geographic writer who actually sketches on paper scenes from the stories she covers. It helps fix certain details in her mind, she reports. The debate over recording vs. hand-written note-taking is covered, as well as the surprising extent -- or lack thereof -- to which journalism schools include interviewing in their curricula. We also hear from journalists and journalism educators from Great Britain. Nuts, Bolts & Anecdotes deals with, well, the nuts and bolts of the craft of journalistic interviewing -- sharing interesting, even sometimes amusing anecdotes about how different journalists go about the all-important, yet often overlooked, task of actually "recording" information from sources -- be it via voice recorder or good old-fashioned pen and reporter's notebook.
