Using Fred S. Siebert, Theodore Peterson, and Wilbur Schramm's classic Four Theories of the Press as their point of departure, the authors consider what the role of journalism ought to be in a democratic society.

Ultimately they show how these competing paradigms can affect the laws, policies, and public attitudes of a liberal society.
