Reviews
"Sumpter introduces the notion that the day's news work rules were spread through communities of practice, that is, informal interpersonal networks involving 'knowledge brokers,' as well as through news fiction, newswriters' autobiographies, and trade and general interest publications. The author's early point about how studying this topic can offer insight into today's technology-driven upsetting of the boundaries of journalism underscores why this study is important."-- Patricia Dooley , Wichita State University; author of Taking Their Political Place: Journalists and the Making of an Occupation and The Technology of Journalism: Cultural Agents, Cultural Icons, "His willingness to venture outside of the standard historian's toolbox and utilize the work of other disciplines to underpin historical work in modern social science makes Sumpter's work not just good, but exceptional. To make that very interdisciplinary work the core of his thesis and theoretical paradigm is a welcome breath of fresh air in the discipline."-- H-Net Reviews, "His willingness to venture outside of the standard historian's toolbox and utilize the work of other disciplines to underpin historical work in modern social science makes Sumpter's work not just good, but exceptional. To make that very interdisciplinary work the core of his thesis and theoretical paradigm is a welcome breath of fresh air in the discipline."--H-Net Reviews, "Sumpter's book is a tight, enjoyable, and informative tour through the dominant reporting practices developed and spread among communities of journalists in the late 19th century, dense with evocative tales and woven with secondary research that contextualizes emerging norms on the cusp of institutionalized journalism education. It will be a valuable resource both for teaching and future research on American journalism history." -- Perry Parks, Newspaper Research Journal, "It is the most rare and gifted media scholars who are able to draw from qualitative and quantitative scholarship simultaneously while providing a greater understanding of a media process at both a micro and macro level within theoretical frameworks. In Before Journalism Schools , these investigations inspire to the point of taking one's breath away and are like watching a piano virtuoso perform."-- Communication Booknotes Quarterly, "Sumpter introduces the notion that the day's news work rules were spread through communities of practice, that is, informal interpersonal networks involving 'knowledge brokers,' as well as through news fiction, newswriters' autobiographies, and trade and general interest publications.

Synopsis
Randall Sumpter questions the dominant notion that reporters entering the field in the late nineteenth century relied on an informal apprenticeship system to learn the rules of journalism. Drawing from the experiences of more than fifty reporters, he argues that cub reporters could and did access multiple sources of instruction, including autobiographies and memoirs of journalists, fiction, guidebooks, and trade magazines. Arguments for "professional journalism" did not resonate with the workaday journalists examined here. These news workers were more concerned with following a personal rather than a professional code of ethics, and implemented their own work rules. While scholars have traced some of the connections between beginning journalists and learning opportunities, Sumpter shows that much more can be discovered, with implications for understanding the development of journalistic professionalism and present-day instances of journalistic behavior., Randall Sumpter questions the dominant notion that reporters entering the field in the late nineteenth century relied on an informal apprenticeship system to learn the rules of journalism.

    Took a while to arrive, but, great book at a great price, as described, good seller. Thanks! A previous book from this seller took only four days to be delivered, while this time it took nearly two weeks. Not sure what's up with that.

    Carefully packaged book- arrived wrapped in plastic bag and shipped in cardboard box. As a frequent book buyer I appreciate this as so many books are just crammed into a plastic shopping bag and sent on their way- sometimes always hanging out of the bag. I know that Midtown Book Seller books will arrive as described. Shipped promptly. I’d highly recommend them as a seller.

    Excellent experience with this eBay used book seller! The books arrived in perfect condition, as described, and their pristine condition exceeded my expectations. What impressed me most was the speed of shipping: the book arrived much earlier than expected. Furthermore, the packaging was careful and professional, ensuring the book arrived undamaged. Thanks a lot! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
