The Mythological Role of Journalism

2001 • 245 pages

Interesting enough, although quite dated in how it glazes over the entirety of online journalism with a single paragraph. Then again, the central theory of it still holds, no matter how irrelevant some of Lule's language might be when he talks of his field.

It was fun to be able to think of contemporary examples for each of the eternal myths that the book lists.

I don't think the author is a great fan of The New York Times.
