  Summary:

  Former editor of The Guardian newspaper discusses the shifts in the news landscape in recent years and what those shifts might mean for the future of democracy.

  Summary:

  Technology has radically altered the news landscape: once-powerful newspapers have been purchased by owners with particular agendas; algorithms select which stories we see; the Internet spreads dangerous misinformation at the speed of a click. Rusbridger demonstrates how these shifts have occurred, and what they mean for the future of democracy. As an editor at the British daily The Guardian, he oversaw world-shaking scoops and helped The Guardian become a pioneer in Internet journalism. Now he offers a vital assessment of the risks and rewards of practicing journalism in a high-impact, high-stress time. -- adapted from jacket
