Long before he left the television news industry, Mark Kelley was concerned about the trends he saw developing in the business. Commercial pressures (exacerbated by the relentless meddling of consultants) were making it increasingly difficult for professional news workers to do a competent job of delivering important information to readers, listeners, and viewers. He conceived the notion of writing a book that analyzed all news media, connecting it to the quest for truth that drives people of faith and spirituality. Engaging News Media explores the state of the news media and their audiences today, attempting to examine whether or not truth could be found there, and if so, how people of faith and people in general might be more successful in extracting it.
MARK KELLEY is a former professional broadcast journalist, reporter, and news anchor who now teaches journalism. He is currently an Assistant Professor of Communication and Journalism at The University of Maine-Orono.
I highly recommend this book for those who seek the truth and do not accept everything they see, hear, or read as factual until proven with certainty to be reality. -- Caron Smith * Armchair Interviews * Invaluable to anyone trying to understand the truth, regardless of personal faith. . . . Very strongly recommended for readers of all backgrounds. * Midwest Book Review, November 2008 *
