Description

In a democratic society, the role of the press is usually characterized by neutrality and the necessity of an informed electorate.

The journalist's ethic is to present facts with minimal interpretation.

Over the decades, however, this strict code has evolved and opened up, and thanks to the internet, an alternative media has risen.

This has led to accusations of media bias and condemnation of certain media outlets by powerful elected leaders.

The viewpoints in this volume explore the obligations of the media, the rise of satirical news outlets, and how to interpret news in a post-fact era.
