Stated First Printing - Number line: 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 - NO writing marks or tears - NO remainder marks or price clippings. 310 pages - The #1 New York Times bestselling author of Bias exposes the culture of narrow-minded elitism in the media and reveals what must be done to change it. In December of 2001 Emmy Award-winning journalist Bernard Goldberg charged the mainstream media with slanting the news and created a firestorm with his controversial bestseller Bias. Now Goldberg goes beyond identifying the media's partiality and explains how the slanting of the news is all but inevitable in the current climate and why the media's stars continue to deny the industry's condition. In this fascinating report Goldberg lays out his rallying cry unafraid to name names and prescribes the difficult remedies that must take place if genuinely balanced news is to survive. Author Biography: Bernard Goldberg lives in Miami Florida. Warner Books Inc Hardcover

Novel History: Historian and Novelists Confront America's Past And Each Other
Simon & Schuster 2001. Book. Very Good. Hardcover. Very-good clean condition. NO remainder marks or price clippings. 352 pages. NO tears inside book. Dustcover shows light wear NO tears. 22 pages show writing/highlighting. Does NOT interfere with reading. Dustcover shows light wear NO tears. Historical fiction is a contradiction in terms. History is what happened; fiction what did not. Yet great novelists have often disregarded this logical difficulty taking up the tools of the historian to explore the shadowy recesses of the past. Their labors have brought forth many literary treasures. But how accurately do these masterpieces of the imagination reflect the past In Novel History twenty accomplished historians consider this question in relation to some of our most important historical novels. Their essays are followed in most instances by a response from the novelist. These dialogues illuminate one of the most fascinating and perplexing issues of our time -- the relation between the "real" past and our finest imaginative renderings of it. Novel History includes essays by distinguished historians such as John Demos Michael Kammen Joan D. Hedrick John Lukacs Eugene D. Genovese Richard White and Tom Wicker and responses from notable novelists including Gore Vidal John Updike Russell Banks Don DeLillo Larry McMurtry Jane Smiley Madison Smartt Bell William Styron T. Coraghessan Boyle William Kennedy Charles Frazier Thomas Fleming and Tim O'Brien. Novel History is both a uniquely compelling perspective and superb collection of literary history. Size: 8vo - over 7�" - 9�" tall. Simon & Schuster Hardcover
