News Values is a concise, powerful statement of the fundamental issues, ethical and practical, confronting newspapers today. Jack Fuller not only makes those issues clear, but offers a provocative new perspective on questions journalists should be asking themselves now in order to prepare for tomorrow.

Every talk show host should read this book. So should every newsroom cynic. . . . 'Pursuit of truth is not a license to be a jerk.' In all too many newsrooms, that statement would resound like a three-bell bulletin.--Martin F. Nolan, New York Times Book Review

[News Values] ought to be required reading not just for those who work for newspapers, but for all those who read and care about them. . . . [This book] seems destined to become one of those slim but important volumes people read for a long time to come.--Richard J. Tofel, Wall Street Journal

Fuller stays above the fray [of the many books on the media]: His is a deeply intellectual approach, one that provides serious context to the highly complicated issue of how the news 'works.'--Duncan McDonald, Chicago Tribune Books

News Values has the touch and feel of knowledgeable, authentic caring about the kind of journalism than can help make society more cohesive, even human. --Monitor's Pick, Christian Science Monitor
