Overview

Journalism- Print, Politics and Popular Cultureinvestigates the fascinating history of print journalism in Australia in all its aspects - the lives, working conditions, consciousness, and humour of journalists, the changing technologies and political circumstances within which they worked, and the newspapers and magazines they produced. The contributors consider the inventiveness of the journalists themselves, and the changing patterns of ownership and readership to which they continually adapted. Print journalism, for longer than any other medium, has provided an arena for a public sphere of debate. The authors analyse their subject from both inside and outside, combining occasional sharp criticism with warm appreciation. With the challenge from new communication technologies now suggesting radical changes to the forms and cultural impact of print journalism, an understanding of its long, adventurous, and complex history is more interesting and important than ever before.
