Features: This book systematically interprets American media criticism from the perspective of the relationship between critical narrative and the news profession. The discussion unfolds in three parts: The first part focuses on analyzing the narrative and moral aspects of media criticism; the second part combines theory with case studies to explore the role and counteraction of media criticism in the construction of authority within the American news profession; the third part examines the relationship between American media criticism and professional norms. The book is rigorously argued, well-documented, and offers insightful perspectives. It also provides valuable inspiration for the development of media criticism in China.
