Description

Journalism is an essential part of the democratic process. It is simultaneously a profit-making business, a form of entertainment, and a political institution with complex ties to the state and to other powerful political actors. We Keep America on Top of the World brings together Daniel Hallli's most recent work on American journalism, with particular emphasis on its most influential and controversial component - television news. We Keep America on Top of the World explores the tensions produced by the multiple roles which exist within broadcast journalism. Hallin approaches the study of broadcast news from many angles - comparative, historical, cultural and political-economic. His discussion encompasses explorations of many of the most central and controversial issues in the study of journalism: the wars in Vietnam and Central America, US-Soviet, the origin of the ten-second sound bite, the difference between print and television journalism, the blurring line between news and entertainment, and the tension between professionalism and populism. We Keep America on Top of the World offers a distinctive approach to understanding an institution torn between the imperatives of the market, political ideology and popular fashion, and journalistic professionalism.

Author Biography:
