Description

In Making Social Work News, Meryl Aldridge examines how the media portrays the social work profession. Recent years have seen social work face negative news coverage, with many extreme headlines and accusations directed at local authority social work involving children. Most of these claims originate from the national press. This book offers a deep look into how the media represents social work. It is structured into three parts to provide a comprehensive perspective. The first section helps students and practitioners understand the daily operations and commercial logic used by the UK press. This foundation is essential for anyone looking to understand why certain stories are chosen and how they are framed. By widening the debate beyond simple headlines, Aldridge provides a necessary analysis of the relationship between the press and social work practitioners. This text serves as an important resource for understanding the impact of media representation on the profession and the public perception of social services.
