Start your Holiday Shopping! Election 2008 Front Page Collection

The Poynter Institute has compiled a collection of newspaper front pages of the election 2008 results. The book, which is available for just $14.99 (NPPA,ASNE, APME, SND or ASJA members get discounts), is the perfect buy for anyone interested in journalism! I already bought one for myself!

Here’s what Poynter had to say about the collection:

At a moment when readers appreciate the “first draft of history” that journalism provides, Poynter is publishing a book of newspaper front pages that tells the story of this unprecedented election.

Produced in partnership with dozens of U.S. and international newspapers, this exclusive collection of 75 front pages features an introduction by “Doonesbury” creator Garry Trudeau.

Participating papers include: Anchorage Daily News, Chicago Sun-Times, Chicago Tribune, Detroit Free Press, Rocky Mountain News, St. Petersburg Times, Staten Island Advance, Boston Globe, (Raleigh) News & Observer, Philadelphia Tribune, Times-Picayune, USA Today, college papers, ethnic press, and international publications.

Profits from the book will help subsidize Poynter training. Available just before Christmas, this book will be a historic keepsake for anyone who cares about journalism and democracy.
