Make a WISE Gift
Meet some of the people who built and shaped American journalism from colonial and revolutionary times to the First World War. Starting with early publishers to early 20th century journalists, we’ll look at how their ideas and methods are evident in today’s news practices. Through the stories of several journalism leaders each week, the course will comprise a rough history of American journalism and offer some conversation about how we view and use this essential institution today.
