The Roots of Fake News: Objecting to Objective Journalism

By Matthew Winston and Brian Winston

Book Overview

The Roots of Fake News

argues that 'fake news' is not a problem caused by the internet or the failure of good journalism to assert itself. Rather, it is within the news' ideological foundations - professionalism, neutrality, and most especially objectivity - that the roots of the current 'crisis' are to be found.
