The News about the News: American Journalism in Peril Paperback - 2003
by Leonard Downie; Robert G. Kaiser
Downie and Kaiser--both "Washington Post" executives and former investigative journalists--take readers inside the news media to reveal why they get the (often unsatisfactory) news they do, why news reporting is increasingly deteriorating, and what can be done about it.
From the publisher
From the jacket flap
Freedom of the press is a primary American value. Good journalism builds communities, arms citizens with important information, and serves as a public watchdog for civic, national, and global issues. But what happens when the news turns its back on its public role?
Leonard Downie Jr., executive editor of "The Washington Post, and Robert G. Kaiser, associate editor and senior correspondent, report on a growing crisis in American journalism. From the corporatization that leads media moguls to slash content for profit, to newsrooms that ignore global crises to report on personal entertainment, these veteran journalists chronicle an erosion of independent, relevant journalism. In the process, they make clear why incorruptible reporting is crucial to American society. Rooted in interviews and first-hand accounts, the authors take us inside the politically charged world of one of America's powerful institutions, the media.
