Amazonのエディトリアルレビューより

Product Description

Journalism in New Zealand is facing a rising tide of discontent. As never before, the public is questioning the function and integrity of a commercialized new media. In the scramble for readers, audiences and profits, sensational, scurrilous and downright sloppy journalism is growing. Yet young people entering the profession are better educated than ever and we see frequent examples of investigative and authentic journalism. The challenges are enormous, but journalism is not beyond reclaim.

In What’s News? Brian Edwards, Sir Geoffrey Palmer, Renginui Walker, Al Morrison, Michael Field and Jim Tully, along with other leading journalists and academics, debate the issues. Read them on politics and the media, ethics, checkbook journalism, infotainment and spin, ownership and control, the changes in crime and sports reporting, and the bad news about Maori and Pacific Island coverage.
