Walter Lippmann has been widely misrepresented in media and communication scholarship. Focusing primarily on his early career when Lippmann directly addressed the challenges posed to democracy by the emergence of new communication technologies, this book is part of that renaissance.

Designed for students of communication who require a critical interpretation of meaning, censorship and the media in the contemporary world, this study analyzes political and social theories in an effort to challenge traditional ideas about the control of words and the freedom of the media.
