Journalism : the need for a free press
(Book)

Includes bibliographical references (pages 217-221) and index.

Since establishing the importance of journalistic freedoms in the nineteenth century, The New York Times has continually demonstrated the importance of free communication between press and public, from the publication of the controversial Pentagon Papers in 1971, to its navigation of the contentious relationship between the press and the Trump administration. The articles collected in this volume take readers through decades of American journalism, with a particular focus on the changing notions of press freedoms, notable cases of censorship defiance, addressing bias and controversy in different areas.
