{"product_id":"daily-news-eternal-stories-jack-lule-9781572306066","title":"Daily News, Eternal Stories: The Mythological Role of Journalism","description":"This compelling, often surprising book demonstrates the ways news articles of today draw from age-old tales that have chastened, challenged, entertained, and entranced people since the beginning of time. Through an insightful exploration of hundreds of \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e articles, award-winning professor and former journalist Jack Lule reveals mythical themes in reporting on topics from terrorist hijackings to Huey Newton, from Mother Teresa to Mike Tyson. Beneath the fresh facade of current events, Lule identifies such enduring archetypes as the innocent victim, the good mother, the hero, and the trickster. In doing so, he sheds light on how media coverage shapes our thinking about many of the confounding issues of our day, including foreign policy, terrorism, race relations, and political dissent. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Winner of the MEA's 2002 Lewis Mumford Award for Outstanding Scholarship in the Ecology of Technics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jack Lule\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1572306068\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781572306066\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Guilford Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 01\/17\/2001\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 245\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.58d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/15\/2001 pg. 1087\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eLibrary Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2001 pg. 91\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eForeword\u003c\/i\u003e 08\/01\/2001 pg. 62\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 07\/01\/2001 pg. 1951","brand":"Jack Lule","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44124888170751,"sku":"9781572306066","price":30.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_111571ae-fc56-4c1c-b9db-2d99bb0bd460.jpg?v=1687439407","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/daily-news-eternal-stories-jack-lule-9781572306066","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
