About this book

The Free Press has a chapter headed The Rover Newsboys Abroad. A passage says the press, and the forces behind it, have formulated an aggressive program for pushing American commodity news into every corner of the earth. Another passage says any newspaperman who has worked abroad, or among foreign correspondents here, knows that there is the closest connection between the work of a correspondent and the interests of the State.

The text says what Sulzberger and the news industry are demanding is acceptance by the Soviet Union of the system of special privileges for private enterprise that prevails here. Dr. Kuska is quoted as saying that only in this way can the press be regarded as truly free. A comparison in the text sets Federated Press spending of $18,000 in 1936 against $31,048,000 spent by three employer-minded agencies in a similar 12-month period (1942).
