Description and Table of Contents
Description
This overview of United States journalism also offers an eyewitness record of American history. The book presents 140 noteworthy stories by some of the country's leading journalists. Organized chronologically, the volume spans nearly 300 years, from the issue of the first American newspaper, "The Boston News Letter" in 1704, to articles on the Exxon Valdez oil spill. All the articles have been chosen either because they represent momentous events or because they have, themselves, become famous pieces of journalism.
