Produktbeschreibung
Gatekeeping is one of the mediaa (TM)s central roles in public life: people rely on mediators to transform information about billions of events into a manageable number of media messages. This process determines not only which information is selected, but also what the content and nature of messages, such as news, will be.

This book is essential for understanding how even single, seemingly trivial gatekeeping decisions can come together to shape an audiencea (TM)s view of the world, and illustrates what is at stake in the process.
