Riz Khan - The role of media in the USA

Has the mainstream media in the US replaced serious coverage with
"junk news" and tabloidism?

Especially in foreign affairs, are Americans less informed than ever?
Who is shaping their perceptions of the rest of the world?

and Professor John Maxwell Hamilton, the author of Journalism's
Roving Eye: A History of American Foreign Reporting.
