Show for May 29, 2011. Brooke Gladstone and The Influencing Machine
Yes, there’s a lot to loathe in today’s often sloppy, tawdry, woefully compromised news coverage, but who’s to blame? Brooke Gladstone has been keeping tabs on the media for the past decade and a half, first as NPR’s media reporter and now as co-host of WNYC’s On The Media. Her new illustrated history book traces the evolution of modern journalism, its failings and achievements and society’s role therein.
