Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

The First Amendment guarantees freedom of the press, but Alger has written a compelling book about how the press has increasingly been muzzled by the moguls who control newspapers, television, books, and magazines. The author has based this study on both primary and secondary sources, and he paints a frightening picture of how these megamedia mergers (involving Disney, Murdoch, Gates, and Time-Warner) have limited the kind of information the public receives. This is an extremely readable book about the corporate media takeovers by 12 multinational companies that now control most newspapers, television stations, and book companies and about the resulting impact on the distribution of information. Across the country, we see small local papers taken over by the larger newspaper chains, and the major losers are the small towns whose local news gets diluted. Censorship can sometimes come in the form of corporate caution. Alger (The Media and Politics, Prentice-Hall, 1989) offers steps that need to be taken to protect our freedoms. This work would be an excellent addition to larger public and academic libraries.?Richard P. Hedlund, formerly with Ashland Community Coll., KY
