On the Trail of the D.C. Sniper by Jack R Censer
For a month in the fall of 2002, a series of sniper attacks suddenly dominated the headlines in the nation's capital. This title uses these remarkable events to explore the shifting character of journalism as it entered the twenty-first century and to question how this change in the way news is gathered and reported impacted the events it covered.
"Based on strong and remarkably comprehensive research of news coverage across the media, this book is an intelligent and knowledgeable work on a traumatic event that became a matter of broad national interestThis episode is well worth the kind of close attention Censer gives it." - Michael Schudson, University of California, San Diego, author of Why Democracies Need an Unlovable Press"
Jack R. Censer is Dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences at George Mason University. He is the coauthor, with Lynn Hunt, of Liberty, Equality, Fraternity: Exploring the French Revolution.
