It focuses on how small-town reporters and editors in some of the region's poorest communities decide what aspects of poverty are news, how their audiences interpret those decisions, and how those two related processes help shape broader understandings of economic need and local social responsibility. Focusing on patterns of both media creation and consumption, \u003ci\u003eThe News Untold\u003c\/i\u003e shows how a lack of constructive news coverage of economic need can make it harder for the poor to voice their concerns. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Critical and inclusive news coverage of poverty at the local level, Michael Clay Carey writes, can help communities start to look past old stereotypes and attitudes and encourage solutions that incorporate broader sets of community voices. Such an effort will require journalists and community leaders to reexamine some of the professional traditions and social views that often shape what news looks like in small towns.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michael Clay Carey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1943665974\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781943665976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e West Virginia University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/01\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 252\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.90h x 4.90w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 02\/01\/2018","brand":"Michael Clay Carey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43940227973375,"sku":"9781943665976","price":26.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_c1bc647d-8306-430f-bcce-d1de5b718d7c.jpg?v=1681445985","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-news-untold-michael-clay-carey-9781943665976","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
