This book provides a comprehensive introduction to data journalism, suitable for a range of courses and professionals. It covers topics such as data visualization, cleaning, and analysis, and interviews with practitioners. Skills are taught using freely available software, and additional resources are available for instructors and students.

Publication date: 14 February 2023
Publisher: Taylor & Francis Ltd


This comprehensive guide is designed to provide a thorough introduction to data journalism, covering a broader range of topics than existing titles and thus suitable for a wide range of data and digital journalism courses at undergraduate and graduate levels, as well as to media and communication studies more broadly (including PR and Advertising). It will also be of interest to working professionals.

Interviews with a diverse range of current practitioners and real-world examples of the impact of data journalism in digitally-focused newsrooms help the reader gain a deeper understanding of how these tools and techniques are being used in modern newsrooms.

The skills taught are centered around freely available software, such as Google Sheets and R, making this an affordable choice for students.

The book includes a glossary of terms and datasets for exercises, and additional instructor resources, including FOIA requests, are available through GitHub and Routledge.com. Additionally, Routledge.com hosts additional student resources to support the learning journey.
