The Death and Life of American Journalism

The Media Revolution That Will Begin the World Again

By Robert W. McChesney and John Nichols

Journalism, the counterbalance to corporate and political power, the lifeblood of American democracy, is in meltdown. In The Death and Life of American Journalism, Robert W. McChesney, an academic, and John Nichols, a journalist, who together founded the nation's leading media reform network, Free Press, investigate the crisis. They propose a bold strategy for saving journalism that looks back to how the Founding Fathers ensured free press protection with the First Amendment and provided subsidies to the burgeoning print press of the young nation.

"John Nichols and Bob McChesney are the Thomas Paine and Paul Revere of our time. We ignore them at democracy's peril." —Bill Moyers More
