Imagine a world where the news is manufactured like fast food - mass-produced, hastily assembled, and nutritionally suspect. This isn't dystopian fiction; it's our reality according to veteran Guardian journalist Nick Davies. In his explosive expose "Flat Earth News," Davies turns his investigative skills on his own profession, revealing how commercial pressures have transformed journalism from truth-seeking to "churnalism" - the rapid processing of unchecked material. The book sent shockwaves through newsrooms worldwide, forcing uncomfortable conversations about journalism's fundamental purpose. What happens when the watchdogs of democracy are muzzled by profit margins and production quotas? The consequences reach far beyond media circles, affecting every aspect of our democratic society.
