Beskrivning

Journalism has never been under so much pressure. The journalist is an increasingly vital defender of facts in the age of ‘fake news,’ but new technology and information silos are reducing journalism’s perceived value and undermining its traditional business model. All the while, journalists grapple with the age-old challenges of maintaining their freedom and impartiality.In The Power of Journalists, leading industry figures introduce us to the journalist’s responsibilities and challenges as the teller and protector of truth, interpreter of controversial facts and trusted source of opinion. Drawing from their own fieldwork, the four essayists provide a mindful, rigorous and discerning examination of the predicaments of journalism today.
