In Governing with the News, Timothy E. Cook goes far beyond the single claim that the press is not impartial to argue that the news media are in fact a political institution integral to the day-to-day operations of our government. This updated edition includes a new afterword by the author, which pays close attention to two key developments in the twenty-first century: the accelerating fragmentation of the mass media and the continuing decline of Americans' confidence in the press.\"Provocative and often wise. . . . Cook, who has a complex understanding of the relationship between governing and the news, provides a fascinating account of the origins of this complicity.\"-James Bennet, Washington Monthly\"[Governing with the News] addresses central issues of media impact and power in fresh, illuminating ways. . . . Cook mines a wealth of historical and organizational literature to assert that the news media are a distinct political institution in our democratic system.\"-Robert Schmuhl, Commonweal\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51675927675168,"sku":"NEW0226115011","price":26.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/51KVvADRnyL.jpg?v=1779226835","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/governing-with-the-news-second-edition-the-news-media-as-a-political-institution-studies-in-communication-media-and-public-opinion-0226115011","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
