David M. Ryfe is Professor and Director of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Iowa.
"In this brilliant and wide-ranging book, David Ryfe demonstrates
how journalism is deeply shaped by its relations to other
institutions of public life. Journalism and the Public is an
important contribution to the international comparative study of
news."
Rodney Benson, New York University
"A picture of the public and its relationship with journalism has
held us captive. In this excellent book, David Ryfe sets us free.
Writing with clarity and verve, he shows that while the
relationship varies in response to pressures from state, market,
and civil society, a connection between journalism and the public
is everywhere at the heart of the profession and what it aims to
accomplish."
Rasmus Kleis Nielsen, University of Oxford
