Description

Making Social Work News by Meryl Aldridge offers a critical examination of how the UK press represents social work, particularly local authority child services. This Routledge book addresses the disconnect between sensationalist headlines and reality, providing students and practitioners with essential insights into both media operations and social work coverage. The work is structured in three parts: the first explains the day-to-day operations and commercial logic driving UK journalism, the second analyses press representations of social work, and the final section contextualises these findings within broader media and professional landscapes. Aldridge's comprehensive approach equips readers with the media literacy needed to understand coverage of social work issues and recognise how news narratives shape public perception of the profession.

Three-part structure covering media operations, social work representation, and contextual analysis for students and practitioners.
