Rather, it is within the news' ideological foundations - professionalism, neutrality, and most especially objectivity - that the true roots of the current 'crisis' are to be found. Placing the concept of media objectivity in a fuller historical context, this book examines how current perceptions of a crisis in journalism actually fit within a long history of the ways news media have avoided, obscured, or simply ignored the difficulties involved in promising objectivity, let alone 'truth'. The book examines journalism's relationships with other spheres of human endeavour (science, law, philosophy) concerned with the pursuit of objective truth, to argue that the rising tide of 'fake news' is not an attack on the traditional ideologies which have supported journalism. Rather, it is an inevitable result of their inherent flaws and vulnerabilities. This is a valuable resource for students and scholars of journalism and history alike who are interested in understanding the historical roots, and philosophical context of a fiercely contemporary issue"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 00 $t The fourth estate. $t Roots -- $t Objecting to objectivity -- $t The fourth estate. 650 0 $a Fake news. 650 0 $a Journalism $x Objectivity. 650 7 $a Fake news. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01985391 650 7 $a Journalism $x Objectivity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00984072 700 1 $a Winston, Matthew, $d 1983- $e author. 941 $a 1 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20210701010723.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A83DFC74DA3111EB950CCE9F56ECA4DB 994 $a Z0 $b NIUInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
