By blending the study of a particular type of journalism with a particular type of journalism educator, a new model for journalism education is offered for consideration by the journalism education community.en-ZAJournalism--Study and teaching (Higher)--South Africa.Universities and colleges--Curricula--South Africa.Theses--Media and cultural studies.Thesis
