The slim volume merits a fresh read in our post-truth moment. “In an exact, sense,” Lippmann writes, “the present crisis of western democracy is a crisis in journalism.” For Lippmann, liberty constitutes a method, not a series of prohibitions and permissions. The book’s aim is to identify and examine potential reforms to boost the reliability of news—a project as relevant today as it is unfinished. Liberty and the News is republished in this mediastudies.press edition with a new introduction by Sue Curry Jansen. 04 00 THE TWIN CRISES OF DEMOCRACY AND JOURNALISM: Introduction to the mediastudies.press edition vii Sue Curry Jansen CHAPTER 1 JOURNALISM AND THE HIGHER LAW 1 Walter Lippmann CHAPTER 2 WHAT MODERN LIBERTY MEANS 7 Walter Lippmann CHAPTER 3 LIBERTY AND THE NEWS 23 Walter Lippmann 20 00 Open Access mediastudies.press 01 mediastudies.press Bethlehem, PA 04 01 20201115 13 15 9781951399023 09 mediastudies.press 29 Publisher's website: download the title https://books.mediastudies.press/10.32376/3f8575cb.2e69e142.pdf 99 01 09 mediastudies.press 02 Publisher's website: web shop https://www.mediastudies.press/liberty-and-the-news 99 01
