The sociology of news
Michael Schudson
The sociology of news offers a personal, trenchant, and comprehensive account of the contemporary news media: its origins, structures, operating practices, and codes and cultures. It also takes up the question of the impact of news on society, especially the impact of news on politics. Michael Schudson treats soberly and skeptically a great deal of what passes for wisdom about the press. He takes on not only popular opinion but also academic research and journalists' own self-understanding. Schudson's ultimate objective is not to settle controversies but to clarify them. He makes a seminal contribution to the sociological understanding of the role that news institutions play in the formation of modern public consciousness.
