Six-time New York Times bestselling author, FOX News star, and radio
host Mark R. Levin "trounces the news media" (The Washington Times) in
this timely and groundbreaking book demonstrating how the great
tradition of American free press has degenerated into a standardless
profession that has squandered the faith and trust of the public.
Unfreedom of the Press is not just another book about the press. In
"Levin's finest work" (Breitbart), he shows how those entrusted with
news reporting today are destroying freedom of the press from
within--not through actions of government officials, but with its own
abandonment of reportorial integrity and objective journalism.
With the depth of historical background for which his books are
renowned, Levin takes you on a journey through the early American
patriot press, which proudly promoted the principles set forth in the
Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. This is followed by
the early decades of the Republic during which newspapers around the
young country were open and transparent about their fierce allegiance to
one political party or another.
It was only at the start of the Progressive Era and the 20th century
that the supposed "objectivity of the press" first surfaced, leaving us
where we are today: with a partisan party-press overwhelmingly aligned
with a political ideology but hypocritically engaged in a massive
untruth as to its real nature.
