  • 2015 SPREADING the NEWS.Pdf
    Spreading the News Newsboys, Ann Arbor, Michigan,1892. I am very pleased to introduce the CUNY/New York Times in College 2015 calendar, Spreading the News, a history of journalism in the United States. Published in a time of rapid changes in the industry, it is a timely and welcome contribution to the history of our nation’s fourth estate. The Founding Fathers saw the danger of government censorship during the War for Independence and believed it important to enshrine freedom of the press into the First Amendment. The calendar explores the origins of press freedom and how it is periodically under attack, especially during times of crisis and war. The calendar will also explore how changes in society and technol- ogy have transformed how publishers, editors and journalists produce the news including the rise of the penny press, the development of radio and television, and the rise of the Internet. Media have also been powerful sources of social change. Loyalists and Patriots used colonial newspa- pers to spread their views. In 1831, William Lloyd Garrison published the Liberator to support abolitionism. In the early 20th century, muckrakers turned their focus on government corruption and the danger of corporate monopolies. More recently, Rachel Carson made Americans aware of the environmental dangers of DDT in her book Silent Spring. In the 21st cen- tury, the Internet and social media have become both sources of news and the means to build social movements. Spreading the News is the 12th calendar/website developed in a part- nership between the City University of New York and The New York Times in Education with the support of JPMorgan Chase, Produced by the LaGuardia and Wagner Archives at LaGuardia Community College, it is emblematic of CUNY’s educational mission and commitment to public service.
