Reporting the campaign : election coverage in Canada / Frederick J. Fletcher, editor.: Z1-1989/2-41-22E-PDF

The studies deal with the views of journalists regarding ethical and practical issues in election coverage; the relationship between parties and candidates on one hand, and news media on the other; the question of the accountability of the print media; the coverage of minor parties; problems of stereotyping of and access for minorities in election coverage; and the impact of new technologies on election coverage"--Preface, page xviii.
