About this audiobook
From town criers to investigative reporting—how has journalism shaped public opinion? Journalism has played a crucial role in informing societies, holding power accountable, and documenting history. Early news was spread through word-of-mouth and handwritten newsletters before the printing press enabled mass publication. The rise of newspapers, radio, television, and digital media changed how information was consumed. Investigative journalism exposed scandals, while propaganda and misinformation challenged the industry’s integrity. Today, social media and citizen journalism are transforming news. This book explores journalism’s role in democracy, press freedom, and the ethics of reporting. If you’re interested in the power of the press, this book is for you.
