Recensioner i media

"An ambitious and successful forensic study of international news thatrestores coherence to discrepant theories of news formation, debunks the notion of the media as a unified agency, and restores the particularity of politics, location, and journalistic independence to their rightful place. Altogether a very refreshing addition to our stock of ideas and a vindication of the comparative approach" - Denis McQuail, Professor Emeritus, University of Amsterdam, School of Communication Research "In Explaining News, Cristina Archetti presents a multi-disciplinary investigation of how the elite press in America, France, Italy, and Pakistan covered 9/11 and the invasion of Afghanistan.Using a constructionist approach, Archetti challenges existing paradigms - including the assumption that globalization is generating the homogenization of news - by assessing the influence of national structures on newspaper content.The result is a penetrating analysis, full of stimulating insights drawn from a rich and detailed pool of empirical research.Without question, Explaining News is an ambitious and groundbreaking book - required reading for scholars and students interested in global news." - Edward A. Comor, University of Western Ontario
