In the contexts of crime, social justice, and the law, nothing in visual media is as it seems. In today''s mediated social world, visual communication has shifted to a democratic sphere that has significantly changed the way we understand and use images as evidence. In Seeing Justice, Mary Angela Bock examines the way criminal justice in the US is presented in visual media by focusing on the grounded practices of visual journalists in relationship with law enforcement. Drawing upon extended interviews, participant observation, contemporary court cases, and critical discourse analysis, Bock provides a detailed examination of the way digitization is altering the relationships between media, consumers, and the criminal justice system. From tabloid coverage of the last public hanging in the US to Karen-shaming videos, from mug shots to perp walks, she focuses on the practical struggles between journalists, police, and court officials to control the way images influence their resulting narratives. Revealing the way powerful interests shape what the public sees, Seeing Justice offers a model for understanding how images are used in news narrative.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eImpressive in scope. Thoughtful in approach. Critical in significance. Bock gives us a treasure that expertly illuminates how visual media have historically been used to depict (in)justice and, importantly, provides a roadmap to guide their ethical use into the future. * T.J. Thomson, Queensland University of Technology and author of To See and Be Seen: The Environments, Interactions, and Identities Behind News Images *\u003cbr\u003eThrough her insight and wisdom gathered through years of work as a professional and a scholar, Mary Angela Bock has produced a much needed book about the role of all stakeholders—'law enforcement, citizens, and journalists'—in shaping visual narratives about the criminal justice system and the people who are voluntarily or involuntarily part of it. This timely book covers a full range of issues, from 'embodied gatekeeping' through misrepresentation and re-contextualization in media. Far too often, the result of these imaging and viewing practices is seeing unjustly. * Julianne H. Newton, Professor of Visual Communication, University of Oregon *\u003cbr\u003eBock provides a sophisticated account of how the press, the state, and its citizens use and produce visual narratives of justice. Moving between theory and practice with eloquence and ease, she makes a compelling case for why mediated citizenship depends on the recognition of visibility and voice. * Sandra Ristovska, University of Colorado Boulder and author of Seeing Human Rights: Video Activism as a Proxy Profession *\u003cbr\u003eA remarkable achievement! Informative, insightful and engaging. Seeing Justice is a compelling book that will engage and delight the reader. It exposes the way images about justice are created, contextualized and distributed, and how different social actors struggle for control of those processes. Bock's wry wit is a welcome bonus, too often missing in books of this character.\" * Shahira S.

No, says Sue Robinson, you have put yourselves into it. You have to engage with the people you are trying to inform and come clean about your own identity as a private citizen and public professional. Her brave book, How Journalists Engage, describes the 'built environment' where an alternative—and far more humble—approach is slowly coming into view. In this detailed account of engagement work, there is a rethinking of journalism's entire professional project. I, for one, welcome that. * Jay Rosen, New York University Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute, and author of What Are Journalists For? *\u003cbr\u003eIn How Journalists Engage, Susan Robinson has done something refreshing: She's taken the chaos of an industry besieged by challenges in a turbulent world and extracted a framework that can give journalists a firmer footing. Not sure what it will take to strengthen our ties to an anxious, divided public? Her four new roles and eight new skill sets are a strong place to start. * Mónica Guzmán, Senior Fellow for Public Practice, Braver Angels, and author of I Never Thought of It That Way: How to Have Fearlessly Curious Conversations in Dangerously Divided Times *\u003cbr\u003eHow Journalists Engage illuminates the changing role of trust in the contemporary news ecosystem. Professor Robinson has written an important book for scholars and practitioners alike. * Pablo J. Boczkowski, Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani Professor, Northwestern University, and author of Abundance *\u003cbr\u003eNow more than ever, journalism is faced with the challenge of how to build trust within our increasingly fractured and polarized communities. How Journalists Engage is essential reading for anyone interested in this vital challenge. Building on rich and rigorous empirical research, including a diverse range of engagement case studies, it calls for an ethic of 'identity-aware care,' suggesting that journalists must prioritize listening to and learning from the diverse communities they serve. * Karin Wahl-Jorgensen, University Dean of Research Environment and Culture, Cardiff University, and author of Emotions, Media and Politics *\u003cbr\u003eThe admirable research presented within its pages makes it a must-read.

This collection of fine pieces perfectly embodies his high moral purpose without lecture or cant. Don’t miss a word he writes.”—PETER COYOTE  “This wide-ranging and incisive anthology conveys the spirit of the 1960s and ’70s.”—Publishers Weekly  “The author is idealistic in that he believes that the more Americans know about themselves, the better we would be as a people. This idealism is tonic to the common ignorance in American life today. This book would be good reading for those seeking the hard life of an activist and involved citizen. Harris is a fine writer.”—San Francisco Book Review  “David Harris’s new collection is a rich buffet of American life in the last few decades, with a tasty array of side dishes from other parts of the world. His curiosity is omnivorous, his sense of humor and irony constant, and his sympathies always with the outliers and the dispossessed. He has no illusions and no pretense to objectivity. I wish we had more journalists like him.”—ADAM HOCHSCHILD, author of Rebel Cinderella: From Rags to Riches to Radical, the Epic Journey of Rose Pastor Stokes  “David Harris raises a passionate voice and takes a hard look at justice and injustice in the promised land, his America. He is a writer and a crusader in a grand tradition. I am proud that he got his start at Rolling Stone, where he learned his chops and earned his stripes. His stories, and his own journey, are essential stories of our times.”—JANN WENNER  “A powerful, deeply moving portrait of a generation, beautifully written and filled with wisdom and love for his country, David Harris’s My Country ’Tis of Thee should be read by every American.”—RON KOVIC, author of Born on the Fourth of July  “David Harris is renowned and honored for his courage and his deep conviction for doing the right thing, no matter the consequences. But that is not only what makes this reporter’s memoir so special. Harris is a writer of sheer beauty, often elegiac; someone whose intelligence is matched by the grace of his prose. He is engaged and engaging, intimate and unpretentious. You will be at ease with the book, as he is with himself.”—SEYMOUR HERSH  “Can you be charming and hard hitting at the same time? Well, after reading David Harris’s new book, I’d say definitely yes. And I’d add to the list empathy, sensual intelligence, and an apparently fearless habit of telling the truth.”—SUSAN GRIFFIN  “There are journalists, there are intellectuals, and there are political activists. David Harris’s collection makes clear that he is all three, as well as brave, smart, occasionally funny, and simultaneously subversive and patriotic.”—VICTOR NAVASKY\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTable of Contents\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Acknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Introduction\u003cbr\u003e I Picked Prison\u003cbr\u003e Ask a Marine\u003cbr\u003e Our War\u003cbr\u003e The Bloody End\u003cbr\u003e Behind America's Marijuana high\u003cbr\u003e Busted in Mexico\u003cbr\u003e The Battle of Coachella Valley\u003cbr\u003e Bitter Harvest\u003cbr\u003e The Vampires of Skid Row\u003cbr\u003e A Child of 'The Land'\u003cbr\u003e Michael Murphy and the True Home Field Advantage\u003cbr\u003e What Makes David Harris run?\u003cbr\u003e São Paulo: Megacity Metamorphosis\u003cbr\u003e The agony of the Kurds\u003cbr\u003e My Redwood Confession\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e About the Author\u003cbr\u003e Note on Type","brand":"Heyday Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48886555640151,"sku":"9781597145152","price":14.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781597145152.jpg?v=1722540597"},{"product_id":"the-infodemic-how-censorship-and-lies-made-the-world-sicker-and-less-free-9781735913681","title":"The Infodemic: How Censorship and Lies Made the","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow censorship turned a terrible disease into an assault on rights\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e As COVID-19 spread around the world, so did government censorship. \u003ci\u003eThe Infodemic\u003c\/i\u003e lays bare not just old-fashioned censorship, but also the mechanisms of a modern brand of “censorship through noise,” which moves beyond traditional means of state control—such as the jailing of critics and restricting the flow of information—to open the floodgates of misinformation, overwhelming the public with lies and half-truths.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e Joel Simon and Robert Mahoney, who have traveled the world for many years defending press freedom and journalists’ rights as the directors of the Committee to Protect Journalists, chart the onslaught of COVID censorship beginning in China, through Iran, Russia, India, Egypt, Brazil, and inside the Trump White House.

It challenges shibboleths you may not realize you have.

In this volume, top-notch thinkers from a range of backgrounds and perspectives tackle these vexing questions.  The result is timely, engrossing, and deeply informed.
