Journalism is in crisis. The rise of the internet through social
media and citizen journalism and the financial crisis of 2008 have
taken their toll. Thousands of reporters and editors have been laid
off; nightly news on the major networks is losing close to one
million viewers a year; newspapers have seen declining ad revenues
and circulation figures cut in half; and the old business model for
newspapers based on advertising and subscriptions appears to be
collapsing. Filling the void is commentary, punditry, and even
bigotry. It may have an audience, but it's not journalism in the
professional sense: a commitment to objectivity and a separation of
news and opinion. At this important juncture in the evolution of
journalism, Media Smackdown takes a close look at the history of
the news media in America in order to address the historical,
legal, economic, theoretical, and political issues that affect the
practice as well as the changing face and future of journalism.
