If journalism matters, declares Zelizer (communication, U. of Pennsylvania's Annenberg School for Communication), than journalism scholarship matters. This text is intended primarily as review of the literature, examining the way journalism has been studied in the fields of sociology, history, language studies, political science, and cultural analysis. She provides a chapter for each, suggesting that the study of journalism must approach the topic from a multi- disciplinary perspective and considering key differences between disciplines.
