American newspapers redefined journalism after the Civil War by
breaking away from the editorial and financial control of the
Democratic and Republican parties. Smythe chronicles the rise of
the New Journalism, where pegging newspaper sales to market forces
was the cost of editorial independence. Successful papers in
post-bellum America thrived by catering to a mass audience, which
increased their circulations and raised their advertising revenues.
Still active politically, independent editors now sought to
influence their readers' opinions themselves rather than serve as
conduits for the party line.
