Commercialism and Journalism (1909)

Commercialism and Journalism is a book written by Hamilton Holt in 1909. It is a critical analysis of the relationship between journalism and commercialism, and how the latter has impacted the former. Holt argues that the rise of advertising and the pursuit of profits have led to a decline in the quality of journalism, and that the press has become too dependent on corporations and advertisers. He also explores the ethical implications of this relationship, and how it affects the public's trust in the media. The book is a timeless reflection on the challenges faced by journalism in a capitalist society, and remains relevant to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
