Saving the News: Why the Constitution Calls for Government Action to Preserve Freedom of Speech (Inalienable Rights)

Saving the News - The Ultimate Solution for a Healthy Media Ecosystem Are you tired of feeling like the news is being manipulated or controlled by special interests? Do you want to know the truth about how our government has interfered with America's media landscape? Look no further than "Saving the News" by Martha Minow.

This groundbreaking book takes a detailed look at the transformations in media since the printing press and offers a path for reform. Minow shows that the First Amendment of the US Constitution assumes the existence and durability of a private industry, but nothing in the Constitution forecloses government action to regulate concentrated economic power or require disclosure of who is financing communications.

In fact, the federal government has contributed financial resources, laws, and regulations to shape media in the United States. But here's the good news: Minow also outlines a range of reforms that can be implemented to ensure a healthy media ecosystem.

These include a new fairness doctrine, regulating digital platforms as public utilities, using antitrust authority to regulate the media, policing fraud, and more robust funding of public media. Don't let the media landscape be controlled by special interests any longer.
