Journalism is in crisis, with traditional sources of news under
siege, a sputtering business model, a resurgence of partisanship,
and a persistent expectation that information should be free. In
Covering America, Christopher B. Daly places the current crisis
within historical context, showing how it is only the latest
challenge for journalists to overcome. In this revised and expanded
edition, Daly updates his narrative with new stories about legacy
media like the New York Times and the Washington Post, and the
digital natives like the Huffington Post and Buzzfeed. A new final
chapter extends the study of the business crisis facing journalism
by examining the ""platform revolution"" in media, showing how
Facebook, Twitter, and other social media are disrupting the
traditional systems of delivering journalism to the public. In an
era when the factual basis of news is contested and when the
government calls journalists ""the enemy of the American people""
or ""the opposition party,"" Covering America brings history to
bear on the vital issues of our times.
