Bad News Travels Fast is a clear, concise, and informative account of libel pitfalls and efforts for reforms... File's lucid analysis of libel troubles and developments helps explain why courts are not now swamped with defamation suits., "File's research is impressive, and Bad News Travels Fast makes an important contribution to understanding this 'forgotten period' of libel law."--Samantha Barbas, author of Newsworthy: The Supreme Court Battle over Privacy and Press Freedom "An important contribution to our understanding of the development of First Amendment law, with particular relevance to current debates about the role of journalism and legal protections for the press."--Tim Gleason, professor of journalism and director of the Ancil Payne Award for Ethics in Journalism at the University of Oregon "File reveals an evolution of legal protections for newspapers in the face of developing technology that?lls gaps in our understanding of the role of a free press in a democracy through time and provides us a framework to address similar problems arising from our ever-increasing technological wonderland of instantaneous communication."--American Journalism "Bad News Travels Fast is an invaluable read for those interested in understanding how the press and legal actors at the turn of the last century grappled with some of the legal issues inherent in 'fake news.' In the face of rapid technological change, we can draw on the lessons of the past to ensure that the law yet again responds to changing technology and shifting public expectations for news reporting."--Law Library Journal, File reveals an evolution of legal protections for newspapers in the face of developing technology thatFills gaps in our understanding of the role of a free press in a democracy through time and provides us a framework to address similar problems arising from our ever-increasing technological wonderland of instantaneous communication., Bad News Travels Fast is an invaluable read for those interested in understanding how the press and legal actors at the turn of the last century grappled with some of the legal issues inherent in 'fake news.'

The book is a new copy (as I ordered). Arrived within the frame time. There was no way to track the shipping (which was annoying but I didn't try to contact the seller). The book was packaged in a secure envelope which protected it.
