The News Mausoleum

April 23, 2008 - 2:41 pm - by Ed Driscoll

If you enjoyed my “Atlas Mugged” article last year on the rise of both mass media in the 1920s, and its successor, new media in the late 1990s, and you enjoyed my recent video on the recently-opened “Newseum” in Washington DC, then don’t miss John Podhoretz’s exceptional article on “The News Mausoleum“, which documents the rise and fall of 20th century mass media, and the opening of the granite tomb they’ve built for themselves in the first decade of the new millennium.
