Editorial Review
This book contains a very useful and timely overview of the various crises that have shaped journalism over the years and an excellent reminder of the investigations that have been carried out into journalism's structure and purpose (and which seem destined to be repeated again and again). - Des Freedman, Professor Media and Communication Studies, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK
