Aprašymas

A look at the journalists and satirists who’ve helped transform the political landscape in the twenty-first century.
 
The New Blue Media  traces the rise during the Bush years of new media the news-saturated satire of  The Onion ,  The Daily Show , and  The Colbert Report ; the polemical assaults of Michael Moore and Air America; and the instant-messaging politics of MoveOn, Daily Kos, and the netroots. With the exception of Air America, all of these new media outlets have found commercial success—marking, says Hamm, a new era in liberal politics.
 
Does this new media matter? In 2004, both Michael Moore and MoveOn became major players; more recently, the influence of the netroots has sparked upheaval and debate within the Democratic Party. The New Blue Media examines this phenomenon in depth, and the reshaping of both the style and the substance of progressivism.
