Dick Cavett hosts this excellent retrospective of the early days of the American press, with the great Rosemary Clooney opening and closing this great documentary by singing its theme song "Remember When". It chronicles the first community newspapers in the American colonies, the first true newspapers that appeared in New York and Boston, the rise of the world's first great newspapers in New York City, their market expansion into magazines, their technological expansion into the newsreels, and their ultimate development in broadcast journalism. An outstanding aid in teaching history as well as an entertaining journey into the American experience.
Journalism is the production and distribution of reports on current events based on facts and supported with proof or evidence. The word journalism applies to the occupation, as well as collaborative media who gather and publish information based on facts and supported with proof or evidence. Journalistic media include print, television, radio, Internet, and in the past, newsreels. Concepts of the appropriate role for journalism vary between countries. In some nations, the news media are controlled by government intervention and are not fully (or even partially) independent. In others, the news media are independent of the government but instead operate as private industry. In addition to the varying nature of how media organizations are run and funded, countries may have differing implementations of laws handling the freedom of speech and libel cases.
