Bøger af Leonard Downie

The authors 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 celebrities, 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 firsthand accounts, the authors take us inside one of America's powerful institutions, the new media. With index.

At a time when the role of journalism is especially critical, the former executive editor of the Washington Post writes about his nearly 50 years at the newspaper and the importance of getting at the truth.
