Abstract
[Blurb states: ]
"This social history of American newspapers shows that de
very idea of impartial, objective "news" was the social product of the
democratization of political, economic, and social life in the nineteenth
century. The author analyzes the shifts in reportorial style over the years
and explains why the belief among journalists and readers alike that
newspapers must be objective still lives on."
