New Journalism [is] an American literary movement in the 1960s and the [1970s] that pushed the boundaries of traditional journalism and nonfiction writing. The genre combined journalistic research with the techniques of fiction in the reporting of stories about real-life events.

OBS

Instead of employing traditional journalistic story structures and an institutional voice, [writers] constructed well-developed characters, sustained dialogue, vivid scenes, and strong plotlines marked with dramatic tension. They also wrote in voices that were distinctly their own.
