The Conservative Resurgence and the Press: The Media's Role in the Rise of the Right


Overview

Consumers of American media find themselves in a news world that has shifted toward more conservative reporting. This book takes a measured, historical view of the shift, addressing factors that include the greater skill with which conservatives have used the media, the media's gradual trend toward conservatism, the role of religion, and the effects of media conglomeration. The book makes the case that the media have managed to not only enable today's conservative resurgence but also ignore, largely, the consequences of that change for the American people.
