With a New Afterword
āA comic book with zest and brainsāone that just might help a reader understand the brave new world.ā āThe New Yorker
A million listeners trust NPRās Brooke Gladstone to guide them through the complexities of the modern media. Bursting onto the page in vivid comics by acclaimed artist Josh Neufeld, this brilliant radio personality guides us through two millennia of media history, debunking the notion that āThe Mediaā is an external force beyond our control and equipping us to be savvy consumers and shapers of the news. An invaluable introduction to how the media works from one of the acknowledged masters of the industry, this tenth anniversary edition brings the story up to date, with new illustrations and an afterword that offers a deep examination of the rise of social media and the publicās responsibility in a time of division and disinformation.
