Rodney Hesserus Benson: How Media Ownership Matters, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

How Media Ownership Matters provides a roadmap to understanding how variable forms of ownership are shaping the future of journalism and democracy. Through a comparative analysis of the US, Sweden, and France, this book maps and analyzes four ownership models: market, private, civil society, and public. Highlighting the effects of organizational logics, funding, and target audiences on the content of news, the authors identify both the strengths and weaknesses various forms of ownership have in facilitating journalism that meets the democratic ideals of reasoned, critical, and inclusive public debate.
