	A Sourcebook of American Literary Journalism — www.greenwood.com
		"Literary journalism" has been widely recognized as a genre since Tom Wolfe's description of the "new journalism" in 1973, although journalism using techniques of fiction has existed for far longer.
		Such writing was not "new" journalism and therefore simply a type of journalism; nor was it "factual" fiction, merely a type of realistic fiction.
		The roots of this "new journalism" are traced, and ideas of the theorists of this genre are explicated.

		Vivian Winter did an Honours thesis on literary journalism last year at the University of Queensland, and what she found in her thesis was that there was a lot of enthusiasm for literary journalism among journalists and also among newspaper section editors.
		Literary journalism is better researched and better written than daily journalism; literary journalism plumbs emotional depths in ways that daily journalism studiously avoids, or clunks around.
		Literary in this country at least still is a sort of tiptoe word, isn’t it, it’s The Arts, and we don’t really have a strong tradition of links between the arts and literature, and journalism.

	Nieman Narrative Digest - Essays
		A few distinguished essayists we retrospectively link to literary journalism did indeed commit acts that, if done by writers today, would be considered downright sinful: They combined or improved upon scenes, aggregated characters, refurbished quotations, and otherwise altered what they knew to be the nature of their material.
		In literary journalism, the narrator is neither the impersonal, dutiful explainer and qualifier of academic writing, who presents research material carefully but without special consideration of readers, nor the seemingly objective and factual, judgment-suspending, orthodox informant of newswriting.
		The defining mark of literary journalism is the personality of the writer, the individual and intimate voice of a whole, candid person not representing, defending, or speaking on behalf of any institution, not a newspaper, corporation, government, ideology, field of study, chamber of commerce, or travel destination.

	Literary license. - By Meghan O'Rourke - Slate Magazine
		The very currency of journalism is fact; to toy with it once is to devalue it (and your integrity) permanently, whether you are a great stylist or a hack.
		Newspaper journalism always ought to be thoroughly factual.
		Where fiction is an inclusive genre, one that allows for its conventions to be violated, journalism relies on a system of conventions intended to guarantee objectivity.

	Robert Boynton
		The New Journalism was a truly avant garde movement that expanded journalism's rhetorical and literary scope by placing the author at the center of the story, channeling a character's thoughts, using nonstandard punctuation and exploding traditional narrative forms.
		While some are literary stylists of note (Richard Ben Cramer, Michael Lewis and Ron Rosenbaum, for instance), their most significant innovations have involved experiments with the way they reported the story, rather than the language they used to tell it.
		Second, McPhee's influence on the New New Journalism can been seen in the catholic approach he takes toward subjects: anything–from geology and nuclear weapons to fishing and basketball–is fair game for the literary journalist, as long as it is prodigiously researched and painstakingly reported.
