Description:

Sandra Borden examines the moral and strategic implications of applying philosopher Alasdair MacIntyre's (2007) concept of a practice to journalism. She believes that MacIntyre's ideas can help us to understand what is at stake for society and for those in newsrooms everywhere who have made journalism their vocation.
