This paper reviews the coverage of the religious press in standard journalism histories and scholarly journals and outlines the importance an application or a cultural studies approach could have for the study or the religious press. 4 3 The history of the religious press in this country has largely gone untold.It is a history that must be searched for in the nooks and crannies of journalism histories, pieced together from the categor of "other" to which it has often been relegated. Consensus histories usually give a slight nod to the existence of religious publications, but there has not been any attempt to examine the religious press in this country as a whole and to consider its changing role in relationship to broader social and cultural themes. This paper xvill offer a limited review of histories available on the religious press in this country, focusing primaril on the Protestant press.It will briefly consider the models of historical research that have been used in these histories and offer a modest proposal for future work in this area. The Religious Press throughout American History The religious press and topics ot religious concern once figured more centrall in the content of mainstream media in this count r than the do today. Journalism historian Frank Mott notes that in the First period of magazine publishing in this country, 1741 to 1794, five religious magazines were published and "religion furnished an important part of magazine contents. Nlost of the earl magazines published sermons occasionall in some guise Or other, and a few were devoted largely to homiletical literature....There were man 4 clerical contributions to general magazines, and heresies were pretty strictly banned." I The next thirty years would mark "a prolific p6riod in the founding of religious magazines and in religious discussions in secular periodicals," Mott states, as publications both secular and religious responded to missionaiy enthusiasm, the Kentucky revivals and a perceived "torrent of infidelity." 2Mott characterized the early 1800s as a period of "comparative prospeiity" for religious weeklies and a time when "religious periodicals as a whole found a kinder welcome than the magazines of more general appeal." 3 The religious weekly newspapers competed with their secular counterparts, but differed in their "political new and focus on religious and denominational news. By 1828 one listing of religious publications enumerated 28 religious monthlies and 73 weekly religious newspapers but omitted, according to Mott, "some of the most important."4 And in 1840 the Biblical Repository claimed that "of all the reading of the people three-fourths is purely religious...of all the issues of the press three- fourths are theological, ethical and devotional."5 From 1865 to 1885 the number of religious publications doubled in number to over 650, with a surprisingly large number of religious weeklies, according to Nlott. INIott, Frank Luther, A History ef American Nlao,azines. vol. 1 iCambride, NIA: Harvard 1)iiversity Press, 19301. 50. 2lhid., 132. 3lbid., 4lhul., 370. 5 Most large cities had several of these papers; by 1869 fourteen cities had three or more apiece. Though in both aggregate number and total circulation they fell far below the secular newspaper press, they did not, as a rule, fall below it in ahilit; and they possessed a formidable power." 6 After the Civil War, the religious press consisted of reviews which were published monthly or quarterly and were "devoted largely to theology and scholarship" and the weekly newspapers that covered more general news," although the "rise of the great dailies crowded the religious weekly out of the news field:7 It was a period of lively, and often acrimonious, debate between religious publications and some discussion as to whether religion and journalism were even compatible. After a religious jourmll attacked the Atlantic's theology, its editor. .james Russell Lowell, labelled the religious press "a true sour-cider press, with belI -ache privileges atii_Whed."S Although the 1800s marked the beginning of a decline in the influence of religious publications, religious issues continued to be discussed in general interest magazines. Nlott notes that debates over evolution, the eNistence of hell and the religious revivals were covered b the popular press.°Religion ma have been losing its hold as a cultural force, but it would continue to figure centnillin the public square. Thus, in 1908 it was considered perfect l acceptable when Walter Williams, founder and dean of the University of Nlissouri School of journalism, delivered a speech bNIctt, History of Americania:T,azine, vol. 3 tCambrido,e, N1A: Har,ard University Press, 1938), 07, Ibid., 03, 00. 8Ibid., 65. 9ibid.. 85-6. 6 entitled, "The Bible: A Textbook for Journalists." The address became so popular it was given several times and eventually was published in pamphlet form. Speaking to the Iowa State Press Association, Williams called the Bible "the best text-book I know on journalism" and "a model of good journalism."IoMoses, he said, was "the first great editor," Luke, "the best reporter whose works I have read," and the Apostle Paul, "the best special correspondent."11Liberally sprinkling his remarks with Scriptural quotations and references to biblical personalities. Williams made his case for the link between good journalism and a faith in God. He stated: Fr(mi inthnate acquaintanceship with newspaper men. I can say with confidence that in journalism there are few, if any, men who have not an abiding faith in the Fatherhood of God. They may not attend our churches as they should; t hey may sometimes speak lightly of ceremonials and creeds: they may appear affected with modern indifference: they ma critici/e the sermons of they eHow pulpit. But ou will find, if ou know newspaper men as I know them, that they have the highest reverence for hol things, the most sincere l'aith in a personal God, not a mere absentee First Cause. Fundamental to good journalism is keeping the faith: anth in God and faith in man.1 2 One %\ould be hard pressed to find a serious journalist or practitioner of religion toda who would speak so glibly about the merits of such a union. The kind or religious patriotism that Williams espoused would not be viable or desirable in the pluralistic culture of our times.

  • The News Media Industry Defined
    Spring 2006 Industry Study Final Report News Media Industry The Industrial College of the Armed Forces National Defense University Fort McNair, Washington, D.C. 20319-5062 i NEWS MEDIA 2006 ABSTRACT: The American news media industry is characterized by two competing dynamics – traditional journalistic values and market demands for profit. Most within the industry consider themselves to be journalists first. In that capacity, they fulfill two key roles: providing information that helps the public act as informed citizens, and serving as a watchdog that provides an important check on the power of the American government. At the same time, the news media is an extremely costly, market-driven, and profit-oriented industry. These sometimes conflicting interests compel the industry to weigh the public interest against what will sell. Moreover, several fast-paced trends have emerged within the industry in recent years, driven largely by changes in technology, demographics, and industry economics. They include: consolidation of news organizations, government deregulation, the emergence of new types of media, blurring of the distinction between news and entertainment, decline in international coverage, declining circulation and viewership for some of the oldest media institutions, and increased skepticism of the credibility of “mainstream media.” Looking ahead, technology will enable consumers to tailor their news and access it at their convenience – perhaps at the cost of reading the dull but important stories that make an informed citizenry. Changes in viewer preferences – combined with financial pressures and fast paced technological changes– are forcing the mainstream media to re-look their long-held business strategies. These changes will continue to impact the media’s approach to the news and the profitability of the news industry.

  • The “New Yorker Volkszeitung.” {1}
    VOL. VIII, NO. 39 NEW YORK, SUNDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1898 PRICE 2 CENTS POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC The “New Yorker Volkszeitung.” {1} By DANIEL DE LEON he New Yorker Volkszeitung of the 14th instant, commenting upon the honest and the dishonest elements at the so-called convention of the so-called American T Federation of Labor, proceeds to say: The comfort of these two elements was formerly not quite so well provided for at the time when there were more Socialist pikes in that pond; at the time, namely, when a part of these had not yet chosen to lead, outside of the American Federation, a separate existence of doubtful success, instead of, as formerly, tirelessly, unflaggingly, step by step, boring their way forward from within. At that time, the corruptionists of the Labor Movement always felt quite uncomfortable at the opening of every annual convention, because they were in the dark as to the strength in which the Socialists might turn up, as to the weapons of attack these might be equipped with, and as to how far these would succeed in making breaches in the ranks of the shaky. This sense of uneasiness is now wholly vanished. The theory here advanced, together with the implied facts that are needed to support it, is a pure figment of the brain,—the abortion of a convenient ignorance on the history of the Movement in America, coupled with that queer “tactfulness” that consists in flinging about phrase-clad pretexts to justify indolence. It is a surreptitious re-asserting of tactics that the party, in national convention assembled in ’96, solemnly threw aside for ever as stupid and poltroonish.

  • David Freed JOUR S-599 Capstone 26 July 2017
    1 David Freed JOUR S-599 Capstone 26 July 2017 STRONGER TOGETHER: GROUP REPORTING AND THE PUBLIC’S RIGHT TO KNOW By the spring of 1976, Don Bolles had grown weary of investigative reporting. The irregular hours. The phone threats. The fear of libel suits. The indifferent and sometimes timid editors. After more than a dozen years of exposing organized crime and corruption in Phoenix for the Arizona Republic, Bolles was relieved to be finally leaving the beat, moving on to cover the state legislature. That was the anguishing irony of it, his friends and fellow reporters would lament, that someone had murdered him when he was no longer a threat. Some said the 47-year-old journalist should have ignored the news tip that led to his assassination. But even as he sought to distance himself from his craft, Don Bolles and investigative reporting were inseparable. And so, when a man called whom he’d never met, claiming to have incriminating information about an Arizona congressman in bed with the mob, Bolles did what he always did with potential sources. He suggested they get together face-to- face. The caller said his name was John Adamson. The two men made plans to meet in the lobby of the upscale Hotel Clarendon (now the Clarendon Hotel and Spa) in downtown Phoenix. Adamson, however, never showed. After waiting 15 minutes, Bolles returned to his white Datsun 710 compact. As the father of four backed out of his parking space, six sticks of dynamite taped to the car’s frame under his seat 2 detonated.

  • The American Newsroom: a Social History, 1920 to 1960
    The American Newsroom: A Social History, 1920 to 1960 Will T. Mari A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Washington 2016 Reading Committee Richard Kielbowicz Randy Beam Doug Underwood Program Authorized to Offer Degree Communication © Copyright 2016 Will Mari University of Washington Abstract The American Newsroom: A Social History, 1920 to 1960 Will Mari Chair of the Supervisory Committee Richard Kielbowicz, associate professor, communication Dept. of Communication One of the most important centering places in American journalism remains the newsroom, the heart of the occupation’s vocational community since the middle of the nineteenth century. It is where journalists have engaged with their work practices, been changed by them, and helped to shape them. This dissertation is a thematic social history of the American newsroom. Using memoirs, trade journals, textbooks and archival material, it explores how newsrooms in the United States evolved during a formative moment for American journalism and its workers, from the conclusion of the First World War through the 1950s, the Cold War, and the ascendancy of broadcast journalism, but prior to the computerization of the newsroom. It examines the interior work culture of news workers “within” their newsroom space at large, metropolitan daily newspapers. It investigates how space and ideas of labor transformed the ideology of the newsroom. It argues that news workers were neither passive nor predestinated in how they formed their workplace. Finally, it also examines how technology and unionization affected the newsroom and news workers, and thus charts the evolution of the newsroom in the early-to-middle decades of the twentieth century.

  • Connolly in America: the Political Development of an Irish Marxist As Seen from His Writings and His Involvement with the American Socialist Movement 1902-1910
    THESIS UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE JAMES CONNOLLY IN AMERICA: THE POLITICAL DEVELOPMENT OF AN IRISH MARXIST AS SEEN FROM HIS WRITINGS AND HIS INVOLVEMENT WITH THE AMERICAN SOCIALIST MOVEMENT 1902-1910 by MICHEÁL MANUS O’RIORDAN MASTER OF ARTS 1971 A 2009 INTRODUCTION I have been most fortunate in life as regards both educational opportunities and career choice. I say this as a preface to explaining how I came to be a student in the USA 1969-1971, and a student not only of the history of James Connolly’s life in the New World a century ago, but also a witness of, and participant in, some of the most momentous developments in the living history of the US anti-war and social and labour movements of 40 years ago. I was born on Dublin’s South Circular Road in May 1949, to Kay Keohane [1910-1991] and her husband Micheál O’Riordan [1917- 2006], an ITGWU bus worker. This was an era that preceded not only free third-level education, but free second-level education as well. My primary education was received in St. Kevin’s National School, Grantham Street, and Christian Brothers’ School, Synge Street. Driven to study - and not always willingly! - by a mother who passionately believed in the principle expounded by Young Irelander Thomas Davis – “Educate, that you may be free!” - I was fortunate enough to achieve exam success in 1961 in winning a Dublin Corporation secondary school scholarship. By covering my fees, this enabled me to continue with second-level education at Synge Street. In my 1966 Leaving Certificate exams I was also fortunate to win a Dublin Corporation university scholarship.

  • Socialist Labor Party: 1906-1930 (Pdf)
    SSOOCCIIAALLIISSTT LLAABBOORR PPAARRTTYY:: 11990066 ––11993300 A 40TH ANNIVERSARY SKETCH OF ITS EARLY HISTORY By Olive M. Johnson OLIVE M. JOHNSON (1872–1954) [EDITOR’S NOTE: For purposes of continuity, it is recommended that Henry Kuhn’s sketch of SLP history from 1890 to 1906 be read first.] EITHER the grilling financial struggle nor even the conspiracies and treacheries tell the whole tale of the Party’s history during the decade from NN1895 to 1905. The really important thing is that in the crucible of struggle its principles and policies and with it the principles and policies of the revolutionary movement of America were cast and clarified. De Leon himself grew in stature and conception during these trying years. It is necessary here to review the situation. Party Policy Clarified. Long before 1905 De Leon, and with him the Socialist Labor Party, had perceived that the policy known as “boring from within” the labor unions would never accomplish its aim of turning the members of the “pure and simple” faker-led American Federation of Labor (A.F. of L.) into classconscious Socialists. The most active members in fact were “boring themselves out.” At the same time it was becoming ever clearer to the S.L.P. that the political movement of the workers must have “an economic foundation.” This foundation, of course, pointed directly to the shop and factory; but the shop and factory were either left entirely unorganized or in the hands of the A.F. of L., which, as was becoming increasingly clearer, while an organization of workers, was officered by “lieutenants” of the capitalists, hence just as much a capitalist organization as the German army was a ruling class Socialist Labor Party 1 www.slp.org Olive M.

I would like to acknowledge those who have aided in my journey, helped to keep me believing, and molded me into the scholar that I am today. I need to begin by acknowledging those who led me to want to pursue a career in higher education in the first place. Dr. Bonnie Jefferson’s The Rhetorical Tradition was the first class that I walked into during my undergraduate years at Boston College. She made me fall in love with the history of U.S. public discourse and the study of rhetorical criticism. Ever since the fall of 2002, Bonnie has been a trusted colleague and friend who showed me what a passion for learning and teaching looked like. Dr.
