Given the highly globalized and converged sets of communication technologies in the contemporary media landscape, information consumers--all of us--can begin to understand the complexity of interpreting daily news. Providing an overview of American media, press, and journalism, and the events, institutions, and people related to its development, this book helps readers develop perspective on contemporary media by using its development for reference. Along with an array of supplemental materials, readers will find tools used by both reporters and historians to understand the present through the past, allowing readers to use the history of journalism as a lens for their own storytelling, reporting, and critical analysis skills. While focusing on American news, the book also features international media other than print newspapers alone. It integrates public relations, advertising, broadcast, and the Internet into a story of the press that builds a singular narrative for a general audience.
