Controlling the means of transmission : old media's fall and new media's rise."Here is a new, sweeping narrative history of American news media that puts race at the center of the story. From the earliest colonial newspapers to the Internet age, America's racial divisions have played a central role in the creation of the country's media system, just as the media has contributed to--and every so often, combated--racial oppression. News for All the People reveals how racial segregation distorted the information Americans received from the mainstream media. It unearths numerous examples of how publishers and broadcasters actually fomented racial violence and discrimination through their coverage. And it chronicles the influence federal media policies exerted in such conflicts. It depicts the struggle of Black, Latino, Asian, and Native American journalists who fought to create a vibrant yet little-known alternative, democratic press, and then, beginning in the 1970s, forced open the doors of the major media companies."--from publisher's description.

Newspaper wars : civil rights and white resistance in South Carolina, 1935-1965 / by Bedingfield, Sid,author.(CARDINAL)349338;
Includes bibliographical references (pages 245-258) and index.Early struggles -- A newspaper joins the movement -- A black political insurgency in the Deep South -- The white press and the Dixiecrat revolt -- An old warrior underestimates a new foe -- Massive resistance and the death of a black newspaper -- The paper curtain and the new GOP -- Color-blind conservatism and the great white switch.Against all odds, the seeds of social change found purchase in mid-twentieth century South Carolina. Newspaperman John McCray and his allies at the Lighthouse and Informer challenged readers to "rebel and fight" -- to reject the "slavery of thought and action" and become "progressive fighters" for equality. Newspaper Wars traces the role journalism played in the fight for civil rights in South Carolina from the 1930s through the 1960s. Moving the press to the center of the political action, Sid Bedingfield tells the stories of long-overlooked men and women on the front lines of a revolution. African American progress sparked a battle to shape South Carolina's civic life, with civil rights activists arrayed against white journalists determined to preserve segregation through massive resistance. As that strategy failed, white newspapers turned to overt political action and crafted the still-prevalent narratives that aligned southern whites with the national conservative movement. A fascinating portrait of a defining struggle, Newspaper Wars analyzes the role journalism played -- and still can play -- during times of social, cultural, and political change.

We shall overcome : press photographs of Nashville during the Civil Rights era / by Delmez, Kathryn E.,editor.(CARDINAL)802095; Edwards, Susan H.,contributor.(CARDINAL)799484; Wynn, Linda T.,contributor.(CARDINAL)636049; Lewis, John,1940-2020,writier of introduction.(CARDINAL)193731;
Includes bibliographical references.Foreword / John Lewis -- Preface / Kathryn E. Delmez -- Acknowledgements / Susan H. Edwards -- Nashville: an inspirational city / Linda T. Wynn -- The Nashville beat: photojournalism during the civil rights movement / Susan H. Edwards -- Plates -- Timeline."Fifty years after Martin Luther King Jr.'s death--and at a time when race relations and social justice are again at the forefront of our country's consciousness--this book expands on a Frist Center for the Visual Arts exhibition to present a selection of approximately one hundred photographs that document an important period in Nashville's struggle for racial equality. The images were taken between 1957, the year that desegregation in public schools began, and 1968, when the National Guard was called in to surround the state capitol in the wake of the civil rights leader's assassination in Memphis. Photographs from the archives of both daily newspapers will be included: the Tennessean, which was the more liberal publication, and the Nashville Banner, a conservative paper whose leadership seemed less interested in covering events related to racial issues. Some of the photographs in the exhibition were selected to be published in the papers, but many were not, the disclosure of which reveals insight into the editorial process."--Provided by publisher.
