Misinforming A Nation (1917)

By Willard Huntington Wright and S.S. Van Dine

Book Overview

Misinforming A Nation is a book written by Willard Huntington Wright in 1917. The book is a scathing critique of the American press and its role in shaping public opinion. Wright argues that the press is more concerned with sensationalism and profit than with informing the public. He accuses the press of promoting false information, biased reporting, and propaganda. Wright also points out the dangers of a misinformed public, arguing that it can lead to disastrous consequences for democracy. The book is a call to action for journalists and the public to demand more ethical and responsible reporting. Misinforming A Nation is a powerful and thought-provoking book that remains relevant today, as the issue of media bias and misinformation continues to be a pressing concern.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
