Are scandals a form of legitimate journalism, or are they a sign of a society in moral degeneration? These questions are addressed and assessed in Media Scandals, the first book to take a comprehensive look at how scandals are produced and played out in modern culture.
James Lull is professor of communication studies at San Jose State University. Stephen Hinerman is lecturer in communication studies at San Jose State University.
Lull and Hinerman's volume ambitiously sets out to chart the terrain of media scandals, from their history and defining characteristics to their cultural consequences. -- Bethami A. Dobkin, University of San Deigo Rhetoric and Public Affairs
