Book excerpt: In recent decades, turnout in US presidential elections has soared, education levels have hit historic highs, and the internet has made information more accessible than ever. Yet over that same period, Americans have grown less engaged with local politics and elections. Drawing on detailed analysis of fifteen years of reporting in over 200 local newspapers, along with election returns, surveys, and interviews with journalists, this study shows that the demise of local journalism has played a key role in the decline of civic engagement. As struggling newspapers have slashed staff, they have dramatically cut their coverage of mayors, city halls, school boards, county commissions, and virtually every aspect of local government. In turn, fewer Americans now know who their local elected officials are, and turnout in local elections has plummeted. To reverse this trend and preserve democratic accountability in our communities, the local news industry must be reinvigorated – and soon.

Book excerpt: Standard invoice book used as an album to contain collection of newspaper clippings dated Feb. 1912-May 1913, documenting the life and death of the weekly municipal newspaper, the Los Angeles municipal news. Clippings begin with the announcement of the appointment of Robert E. Rinehart of Sacramento as general manager and editor of the Municipal news, a new full-size weekly newspaper to be published in Los Angeles every Friday, eight pages long, and costing 52 cents a year, the first of its kind attempted in the United States. Clippings cover all subjects dealing with the newspaper, including a contest for design of the masthead, awarding of printing contracts, hiring of reporters, authorization by the city council of funds for purchase of a press for the Municipal news, advertising revenues, and other stories chronicling the philosophy, progress, and problems of the paper. Clippings from April-May 1913 record the demise of the paper. Residents of the city voted to suspended the publication of the newspaper after 32 weekly issues due to financial losses. Clippings have been collected from a wide variety of California newspapers such as the Los Angeles examiner, Los Angeles news, Los Angeles times, Los Angeles herald, Los Angeles record, Hollywood citizen, San Pedro news, San Pedro pilot, Pacific printer of San Francisco, Bishop (Calif.) herald, Palo Alto times, Ocean Park (Calif.) journal, Glendale news, Redondo (Calif.) reflex, Long Beach (Calif.) press, Bakersfield (Calif.) echo, as well as newspapers from Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Massachusetts, Maine, Virginia, and Arizona. Also included are clippings in French from Paris newspapers such as Gazette de France, Le temps, and Revue des arts graphiques.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report is the fourth on the state of local news produced by the Hussman School of Journalism and Media at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. It measures what has been lost, while also assessing what must be done if we are to nurture and revive a vibrant news landscape in the third decade of the 21st century. The first section of this report, "The News Landscape in 2020: Transformed and Diminished," examines the loss of local news, from the end of 2004--when newspaper advertising, circulation and employment were at, or near, peak levels--to the end of 2019, providing a time-lapsed snapshot of the news landscape before the coronavirus seized control of the economy. It assesses not only the current state of local newspapers, but also that of local digital sites, ethnic news organizations and public broadcasting outlets. The second section, "The News Landscape of the Future: Transformed ... and Renewed?" establishes the need for a reimagining of journalistic, business, technological and policy solutions. Extensive research has established that the loss of local news has significant political, social and economic implications for our democracy and our society. Yet, according to the Pew Research Center, almost three-quarters of the general public remains unaware of the dire economic situation confronting local news organizations. By documenting the transformation of the local news landscape over the past 15 years, and exploring the challenges and potential solutions, we hope this report will raise awareness of the role that all of us can play in supporting the revival of local news. Accompanying this report, is an updated website, usnewsdeserts.com, with more than 350 interactive maps--allows readers to drill down to the county level to understand the state of local media in communities throughout the United States. You will find information on regional and community newspapers--as well as public broadcasting outlets, ethnic media and digital sites.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Losing the News, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Alex S. Jones offers a probing look at the epochal changes sweeping the media, changes which are eroding the core news that has been the essential food supply of our democracy. At a time of dazzling technological innovation, Jones says that what stands to be lost is the fact-based reporting that serves as a watchdog over government, holds the powerful accountable, and gives citizens what they need. In a tumultuous new media era, with cutthroat competition and panic over profits, the commitment of the traditional news media to serious news is fading. Indeed, as digital technology shatters the old economic model, the news media is making a painful passage that is taking a toll on journalistic values and standards. Journalistic objectivity and ethics are under assault, as is the bastion of the First Amendment. Jones characterizes himself not as a pessimist about news, but a realist. The breathtaking possibilities that the web offers are undeniable, but at what cost? Pundits and talk show hosts have persuaded Americans that the crisis in news is bias and partisanship. Not so, says Jones. The real crisis is the erosion of the iron core of news, something that hurts Republicans and Democrats alike. Losing the News depicts an unsettling situation in which the American birthright of fact-based, reported news is in danger. But it is also a call to arms to fight to keep the core of news intact. Praise for the hardcover: "Thoughtful." --New York Times Book Review "An impassioned call to action to preserve the best of traditional newspaper journalism." --The San Francisco Chronicle "Must reading for all Americans who care about our country's present and future. Analysis, commentary, scholarship and excellent writing, with a strong, easy-to-follow narrative about why you should care, makes this a candidate for one of the best books of the year." --Dan Rather

Book excerpt: Do U.S. municipal police departments respond to news coverage of local crime? We address this question exploiting an exogenous shock to local crime reporting induced by acquisitions of local TV stations by a large broadcast group, Sinclair. Using a unique dataset of 8.5 million news stories and a triple differences design, we document that Sinclair ownership decreases news coverage of local crime. This matters for policing: municipalities that experience the change in news coverage have lower violent crime clearance rates relative to municipalities that do not. The result is consistent with a decrease of crime salience in the public opinion.
