商品簡介
Conboy, a reader in popular journalism at the Surrey Institute of Art and Design, University College, demonstrates the continuity of concerns in the history of journalism, showing how themes of political influence, advertising, sensationalism, the "dumbing down" of the press, and the economic motives of newspaper owners emerge repeatedly over time. His account of the development of newspapers, periodicals, and broadcast journalism enables students of journalism and the media to engage critically with contemporary issues about the news media.
