The Black American and the Press

The Black American and the Press

Charles Evers
0/5 ( ratings)
A hard-hitting, oft times critical but essentially constructive examination of the effect of coverage by the news media on the so-called Negro rebellion which brings to light some important aspects of the responsibility of the press in crisis reporting. The views expressed in this book were originally aired during a four-part symposium held at the University of California at Los Angeles, sponsored by the Department of Journalism. Participants included eminent sociologists, historians, authors, newspapermen, journalists, foreign correspondents and important Negro leaders. They explored such vital questions as:

·Does the presence of TV cameras trigger responses which might otherwise have remained latent?
·Should the newspapers alert the public to festering conditions before they erupt?
·Does crisis reporting inevitably lead to sensational reporting?
·How should news of the city's racial problems be handled?
·What can be done to develop a rapport between the Negro community and the press?
