Description
The Journalist's Predicament: Difficult Choices in a Declining Profession
Exploring the complexities of a profession under pressure, this book delves into the ways individuals come to believe that journalism is a worthy pursuit and how that conviction is managed amid ongoing upheavals.
Through in-depth interviews with journalists in France and the US, Matthew Powers and Sandra Vera-Zambrano examine the tensions that confront many socially important jobs, including teaching, nursing, and caretaking. The authors reveal how social factors such as class, gender, education, and race shape a journalist's perception of their profession.
