The Epic Story of Race and the American Media
Book • 2011
This book reveals how racial segregation distorted the information Americans received from the mainstream media and how publishers and broadcasters fomented racial violence through their coverage.

It chronicles the struggle of Black, Latino, Asian, and Native American journalists who fought to create a vibrant yet little-known alternative and democratic press.

The authors depict key government decisions, corporate battles, and the rise of media conglomerates, highlighting the role of individual journalists and media executives in shaping the media system.
