It is a commonly held belief that television news in Britain, on
whatever channel, is more objective, more trustworthy, more neutral
than press reporting. The illusion is exploded in this
controversial study by the Glasgow University Media Group,
originally published in 1976.
The authors undertook an exhaustive monitoring of all television
broadcasts over 6 months, from January to June 1975, with
particular focus upon industrial news broadcasts, the TUC, strikes
and industrial action, business and economic affairs.
Their analysis showed how television news favours certain
individuals by giving them more time and status. But their findings
did not merely deny the neutrality of the news, they gave a new
insight into the picture of industrial society that TV news
constructs.
First published in 1980, More Bad News is the Second Volume in
the research findings of the Glasgow University Media Group. It
develops the analytic findings and methods of the first volume Bad
News through a series of Case Studies of Television News Coverage,
and argues that much of what passes as balanced and factual news
reporting is produced from a highly partial viewpoint.
Focusing on the British economy in crisis, and its thematic
linkage with the Social Contract during the first four months of
1975, the book deals with three main levels of activity: the story,
the language and the visuals. As the book unpacks each level of
routine news coverage a picture emerges which has the surface
appearance of neutrality and balance but is in fact highly partial
and restricted

As both a preeminent scholar of Balck Angelican and Episcopalians
and devout parishoner, the late James Hewitt writes an illuminus
hsitory of one of the most famous black congregrations in America.
From its humble beginnings, St. Philip's originated from classes
conducted by Elais Neau and other Angelic clerks for the society
for the propagations of the Gospel in Foreign Parts. From these
cateisem classes emerged a higly educated, African-American group
comprised of free and enslaved blacks. W.E.B Dubuois hailed it as
the foundation for the Talented Tenth in his classic book Souls of
Balck Folk After the American Revolution, St. Philip's has since
becoem the church of middle-class blacks across New York City.
Hewlitt's careful and percise scholarship chronicles over two
centuries of of the church's history, which fills a significant
lagun in African-American Religious history.
