Readings

David Croteau and William Hoynes, The Business of Media: Corporate Media and the Public Interest. Thousand Oaks, CA: Pine Forge Press (Sage Publications), 2001.


David Buckingham, The Making of Citizens: Young People, News, and Politics. London/New York: Routledge, 2000.


Additional readings include items that are accessible online or are on electronic reserve through the university library system. Links to these readings are provided via the syllabus. You will need a library patron account to access the items on electronic reserve. Information on retrieving materials from electronic reserve (including a Troubleshooting page) is located at http://www-libraries.colorado.edu/ps/crc/eres/frontpage.htm You will be able to download articles either at home or on campus using Adobe Acrobat. There is a nominal per-page fee for printing pages at some university computer labs.

In order to look at materials that are on e-reserve, you will need to begin by setting up a patron account with the library, if you don't already have one. Then, go to the e-reserve web page (highlighted as a link ABOVE) and search either by the class title (JOUR 2011) or by my name (Clark, Lynn Schofield). This will pull up the list of materials on reserve. Check the syllabus, then click the reading that is appropriate for the day. Troubleshooting help is available at the e-reserve web page, which also lists phone numbers of people to call at the library if you continue to have problems.
