What is news? What does news tell us about the culture and the society that produces and consumes it? This book provides a fresh examination of news production from a cultural perspective, moving beyond what was once called "sociology of news" and toward the globally-broader, culturally-based concept of "journalism studies." Key Features Twenty-three original and contemporary articles --encompassing the intrinsic cultures of print, broadcast, and online media--are grouped in six thematically cohesive sets . The articles are presented chronologically to allow the reader to follow the exchange of ideas between authors over time. Berkowitz looks at news globally , helping the student look beyond his or her own cultural context to that of many other societies. A comprehensive framework helps to thoughtfully present this cultural study of news. Berkowitz opens and closes the text with a cultural perspective on news and hints on applying this perspective to emerging news situations; each section also contains an introduction that highlight connections between the articles.
