520 _aTwenty-one distinguished US journalists, beginning with Ted Koppel and concluding with Knight Ridder's war correspondent Tom Lasseter talk candidly about what's happening to journalism in America as a result of the trend toward junk information and misinformation. Their comments shed light on fundamental changes in the relationship between the government and the governed, and the government and the press. The veteran insiders see a widespread failure to cover government mistakes and malfeasance and a growing willingness of the media to play the role of the administration's propaganda arm. Editor Borjesson, an investigative reporter who has worked for CBS and CNN, is also the author of Into the Buzzsaw.
