Buch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - The rallying cry of 'Free speech!' has long served as a touchstone for liberals and conservatives, alike, engaged in political polarization conflict and discourse. The democratization of media and the feverish pitch of political polarization, however, have contributed to the weaponization of free expression. From Colin Kaepernick to 'fake news,' boycotts of partisan television programming to removals of Confederate monuments, internet neutrality to the silencing of college professors and all points between, citizens and pundits all too frequently wield the slogan of 'Free speech!' as the sword and shield of political discourse. Oftentimes, ironically they do so with little regard for the views of their opponents.

Movies, in their role as cultural artifacts, have long reflected and influenced those public attitudes, inventing such iconic phrases as "follow the money" from All the President's Men and "I'm mad as hell and I'm not going to take this anymore" from Network. Filming the First: Cinematic Portrayals of Freedom of the Press analyzes eighteen films that span from Citizen Kane to Spotlight showing changes in how the press have been portrayed over time, which voices receive the most attention and why, the relationship between the press's "Fourth Estate" role and the imperatives of capitalism, and how, despite the First Amendment's seemingly absolute language, the government has sometimes been able to limit what the public can read or view.…
