Where Ideas Go to Die: The Fate of Intellect in American Journalism - Hardcover

Inhaltsangabe

Ideas die at the hands of journalists. This is the controversial thesis offered by Michael McDevitt in a sweeping examination of anti-intellectualism in American journalism. A murky presence, anti-intellectualism is not acknowledged by reporters and editors. It is not easily measured by scholars, as it entails opportunities not taken, context not provided, ideas not examined. Where Ideas Go to Die will be the first book to engage in a serious study of the issue, at a time when thoughtful examination of our society's news media is arguably more important than ever.
