{"product_id":"9781529238556","title":"What Is Journalism For?","description":"\u003cp\u003eJournalism faces multiple threats today all over the world: economic decline, online disinformation, the rise of AI, authoritarian curbs on freedom of the press, and violence against journalists. In such a climate, it's more urgent than ever to ask what journalism is for. Drawing on his experience as a journalist and media commentator, and on interviews with journalists from the US to Myanmar, Jon Allsop examines key concepts that constitute journalism's role: good judgement, concern for truth and critical scrutiny of one or more communities. Along the way, he also considers the relationship between journalism and activism; whether journalists should aspire to change the world and whether they can be seen as champions of democracy.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bristol University Press","offers":[{"title":"Jon \/ Allsop","offer_id":55361419149685,"sku":"9781529238556","price":8.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0289\/5334\/6096\/files\/9781529238556_4be88294-fe0b-439a-9710-65215978918b.jpg?v=1746885728","url":"https:\/\/goldenharebooks.live\/products\/9781529238556","provider":"Golden Hare Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
