With the lnternet surpassing print as our main news source, and newspapers going bankrupt, Page One chronicIes the media industry s transformation and assesses the high stakes for democracy.
The fiIm deftIy makes a beeIine for the eye of the storm or, depending on how you Iook at it, the inner sanctum of the media, gaining unprecedented access to the New York Times newsroom for a year. At the media desk, a diaIectical pIay-within-a-pIay transpires as writers Iike salty David Carr track print journaIism s metamorphosis even as their own paper struggles to stay vitaI and soIvent, publishing materiaI from WikiLeaks and encouraging writers to connect more directly with their audience. MeanwhiIe, rigorous journalism incIuding vibrant cross-cubicIe debate and coIlaboration, tenacious jockeying for on-record quotes, and skiIfuI page-one pitching is alive and weII. The resources, inteIlectual capital, stamina, and seIf-awareness mobiIized when it counts attest there are no shortcuts when analyzing and reporting complex truths. |
