Summary

should prove invaluable to beginners, journeymen/women and seasoned pros. 
Ren Auberjonois Boston Legal, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
Have you ever watched a show like Whose Line Is It Anyway, and wondered if you could do that? Trust me: You can. 
Everyone improvises. Yes, even you. Or did you wake up this morning, get a cup of coffee, open up your script, and read the scene where you sit at your computer, reading this description of the book? You make it up as you go along, from what you do during your day to everything that you say to other people. It may simply be that you, like many of us, want to be able to improvise a little better. 
I am amazed at the huge knowledge of improv you convey. Your readers, pros or amateurs, should find your book fascinating. 
Adam West, actor

    In Saving the News, Martha Minow takes stock of the new media landscape. As Minow shows, the First Amendment of the US Constitution assumes the existence and durability of a private industry. Although the First Amendment does not govern the conduct of entirely private enterprises, nothing in the Constitution forecloses government action to regulate concentrated economic power, to require disclosure of who is financing communications, or to support news initiatives where there are market failures. Moreover, the federal government has contributed financial resources, laws, and regulations to develop and shape media in the United States. Thus, Minow argues that the transformation of media from printing presses to the internet was shaped by deliberate government policies that influenced the direction of private enterprise. In short, the government has crafted the direction and contours of America's media ecosystem.Building upon this basic argument, Minow outlines an array of reforms, including a new fairness doctrine, regulating digital platforms as public utilities, using antitrust authority to regulate the media, policing fraud, and more robust funding of public media. As she stresses, such reforms are the kinds of initiatives needed if the First Amendment guarantee of freedom of the press continues to hold meaning in the twenty-first century.
