520			_a"This book focuses on news literacy to give students in journalism and media studies an ethical framework and the tools to assess the information they consume. It will raise awareness of how the news works as a business, as a service to citizens, and as a culture. Rather than cheerlead for media industries or promote digital technology (as do some existing titles), it encourages healthy skepticism as a starting point for analysis. Changes in communication have had enormous implications, and the book looks at the economic and technological conditions that facilitated these changes -- sometimes in a beneficial way, and often with disruptions to the way things used to be."
