YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Despite claiming to be neutral, print and TV journalists increasingly report news from an anti-Christian standpoint. Remarkably, however, leading 19th-Century newspapers reported news from a Christian perspective. In Prodigal Press, Warren Cole Smith and his co-author Marvin Olasky examine how the American news media shifted from a Christian worldview to secular humanism, radically altering what the media covers and how it is reported. In doing so, the authors explore the influence of worldviews on reporting, objectivity, sensationalism, and crusading; the impact of legal, ethical, and technological changes; and the changes brought about by the 24/7 news cycle, the Internet, and social media.
