The Changing Faces of Journalism by Barbie Zelizer

The collection is introduced with an essay by Barbie Zelizer and organized into three sections: how tabloidization affects the journalistic landscape; how technology changes what we think we know about journalism; and how ‘truthiness’ tweaks our understanding of the journalistic tradition. Short section introductions contextualise the essays and highlight the issues that they raise, creating a coherent study of journalism today.

"These essays invite the reader to see the opportunities for the renewal of journalism and contribute significant discussion to the debate over journalism's future..Highly recommended." -CHOICE
