All News Is Local

The Failure of the Media to Reflect World Events in a Globalized Age

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book is an investigation of the 300 year old model of global journalism used by the Western news media. It argues that the framework of localization is fragile and unable to cope with the issues, events, agents and institutions of globalization that exist, and that the current model of news gathering and reporting requires rethinking.
