We’re All Journalists Now : The Transformation Of The Press And Reshaping Of The Law In The Internet Age

  • We're All Journalists Now : The Transformation Of The  Press And Reshaping Of The Law In The Internet Age
  • Attribution

    Scott Gant
  • Publication Details

    Book, Free Press, 2007
  • Description

    It wasn’t long ago that the line between journalists and the rest of us seemed relatively clear: Those who worked for news organizations were journalists and everyone else was not. The question will become increasingly important as the transformation of journalism continues, and bloggers and other “citizen journalists” battle for equal standing with professional journalists. Challenging the mainstream media, Gant puts forth specific arguments about how to change existing laws and makes elegant suggestions for new laws that will properly account for the undeniable reality that We’re All Journalists Now.

Printers And Press Freedom : The Ideology Of Early American Journalism

  • Printers And Press Freedom : The Ideology Of Early  American Journalism
  • Attribution

    Jeffery A. Smith
  • Publication Details

    Book, Oxford University Press, 1988
  • Description

    In the United States, the press has sometimes been described as an unoffical fourth branch of government, a branch that serves as a check on the other three and provides the information necessary for a democracy to function. Smith carefully analyzes libertarian press theory and practice in the context of republican ideology and Enlightenment thought–paying particular attention to the cases of Benjamin Franklin and his relatives and associates in the printing business–and concludes that the generation that produced the First Amendment believed that government should not be trusted and that the press needed the broadest possible protection in order to serve as a check on the misuse of power.
