Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. INSCRIPTION FROM STEPHEN J.A. WARD on title page; Clean, tight, unmarked; light wear to inside corners; otherwise very minimal wear; spine straight and uncreased; Ward explores the ethical assertions of journalists over the past centuries, focusing on the changing relationship between journalist and audience. This historical analysis leads to an innovative theory of "pragmatic objectivity" that enables journalists and the public to recognize and avoid biased and unbalanced reporting. Ward convincingly demonstrates that journalistic objectivity is not a set of absolute standards but the same fallible but reasonable objectivity used for making decisions in other professions and public institutions.
