In The More You Watch, The Less You Know, seasoned journalist
Danny Schechter examines the civic failure of modern media,
asserts our right to something better and proposes a strategy for
transformation.
Part memoir, part critique, Schechter's analysis blends a
comfortable grasp of modern media scholarship with a veteran's
ear for the evocative tale. He renders megamedia on a human
scale, names names and points his finger at key players who rule
the airwaves. He navigates a complex, high-stakes landscape with
humor and an unwavering vision of the responsibilities of his
profession. He offers an insider's tale of how the media really
works, and why it doesn't work the way it should. His is a
passionate plea for media reform, rooted in his own fierce
allegiance to freedom of the press.
