Based on a three-year ethnographic study, this book traces the
operations of three high-school newspaper programs in Southern
California: one serving a working-class Latino population and two
serving primarily Caucasian and upper-middle class students. Seeds
of Cynicism explores the differences in educators' approaches
toward young journalists in each school, including their use of
professional standards to explain issues of newspaper ethics, fair
play, and sensationalism. The success or failure of school
newspapers is based on a multiplicity of factors that influence
student motivation from each teacher's level of interest in
journalism to financial issues to the top school officials'
attitudes about journalism. This timely study finds that two of the
three schools actually may increase student disinterest in news and
politics in an era when political interest and newspaper readership
is waning."
