Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of American Journalism, 1917 Frederic Hudson, for many years the managing director of The New York Herald, issued in 1873 his Journalism in the United States. This book, which aimed to cover the period from 1690 to 1872, contains many interesting sketches of editors and their papers, but is so full of errors, and is so biased in its point of view, that it cannot be accepted as an authority even for the period with which Mr. Hudson was most familiar. The United States Government in 1880 issued, in connection with its publications of the census for that year, a History and Present Conditions of the Newspaper and Periodical Press of the United States. For the historical part, the book was based upon the works already mentioned and perpetuated their errors. Its statistical matter, being compiled from data furnished to the census, makes it a valuable contribution to journalism history. In 1881 Charles Dudley Warner, a member of the editorial staff of The Courant, of Hartford, Connecticut, published an essay, The American Newspaper, which he had read before the Social Science Association at Saratoga Springs, New York, on September 6 of that year. Brief as was this booklet, it was a most comprehensive summary of journalism as it then existed. Nothing else of general scope, except scattering magazine articles and biographies of individual editors, has appeared to record the developments of American journalism. The author of this book, while acknowledging his indebtedness to the works already enumerated, has sought in every instance to verify facts as original sources: in his attempt to do so he has been greatly assisted by secretaries of state historical societies to whom acknowledgment for courtesies rendered must first be made. To acknowledge in print others who have helped in the preparation of the manuscript is obviously impossible, except in a few cases.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Brass Check: A Study of American Journalism He had rich relatives who were fond of him, so that he was free to escape from poverty into luxury; he had the opportunity to rise quickly in the world, if he would go into business, and devote his attention thereto. But would he find in business the ideals which he craved? He talked with business men, also he got the avor of business from the advertisements in the newspapers - and he knew that this was not what he was seeking. He cultivated the friendship of Jesus, Hamlet and Shelley, and fell in love with the young Milton and the young Goethe; in them he found his own craving for truth and beauty. Here, through the medium of art, life might be ennobled, and lifted from the muck of graft and greed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book American Journalists in Europe 1919 Classic Reprint written by Horace Monroe Swetland and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from American Journalists in Europe, 1919 It was an afterthought which prompted the attempt to make a permanent, record of the visit of the industrial journalists to England and France as guests of the British Ministry of Information. If we had fully appreciated the great opportunity afforded us, a detailed plan for making this record would have been inaugurated at the start. As it is, many important happenings have not received the attention they deserve. No apology is offered, however, for the lack of literary merit, as the effort has been solely directed to plain statement of facts. Plagiarism is frankly admitted, as the writer has used without stint abstracts from the various writings which have appeared in the numerous publications represented by the party, and elsewhere. Our chief apology is offered to the British Ministry of Information for whatever omissions may have occurred, and, further, for so weak an attempt to cover so important a matter. Apologies arc further extended to the various members of the party - many of whom would have given this narrative the literary distinction which it so richly deserves.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Newspaper One summer day I took my notebook to a wooded hillside whence I could overlook a rich and beautiful valley. The well-tended farms, the strong stone houses, the busy men and animals moving peacefully over the roads and fields, would inspire me, I was sure, with the opening theme of this book. As I seated myself under a chestnut tree a fellow-guest at the hotel came by, and glan cing at my memoranda asked if I, like himself, was writing a lecture. He too had come to the woods, he said, to meditate and to be inspired by nature. But his thesis, enthusiastically unfolded, was the opposite of mine. It was part of his faith as a second-day Adventist that the world is now be coming more unhappy and more wicked; and it is now so evil that the end of it rapidly approaches.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1920 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER LVIII "POISONED AT THE SOURCE" I have been privileged to examine a mass of material, some three or four million printed and typewritten words, the evidence collected for the defense of Max Eastman and Art Young, when they were indicted for criminal libel in November, 1913, at the instance of the Associated Press. These three or four million printed and typewritten words enable us to enter the offices of the Associated Press, and to watch its work hour by hour. They enable us to study the process whereby the public opinion of America is "poisoned at the source." Three hundred miles from our national capital, in the lonely mountains of West Virginia, exists an empire of coal, governed in all respects as Russia was governed in the days of the Tsardom. I take up two printed volumes of testimony given before the investigating committee of the United States Senate, a total of 2,114 closely printed pages; I turn these pages at random, and pick out a few heads that will give you glimpses of how things are managed by the coal barons of West Virginia: "Cheek weighmen guaranteed by law, but not allowed to the miners." "Men paid in scrip which they could not cash." "Men discharged and put out of their houses, as fast as they talked unionism." "Mail burned by store manager." "Law of West Virginia relieves coal owners from liability for injuries in the mine, no matter how they occur." "Independent store-keeper refused his goods at the express office which was on company grounds." "Men not allowed to approach postoffice on company property." "Provost Marshal imprisoned nine men without trial." "No mine guard has ever been tried for participating in any battle." "Machineguns and guards turned on peaceful crowd coming from meeting. In "King Coal..".
