Rating: 5
Summary: An impressive work
Comment: An excellent account of some very important and under-discussed issues. Sincerely wish it would get suitable attention.

Rating: 5
Summary: This is a masterpiece
Comment: Ed Baker's book is a superior examination of the notion of a free press and its relationship to market regulation and democratic values. Baker studiously and carefully lays out one of the finest critiques I have ever seen about the limitations of markets for democratic communication. I cannot exaggerate my enthusiasm for this book.

Rating: 5
Summary: Don't Wait For The Movie!
Comment: This book evaluates the role that government regulatory power can play in ensuring a free and dynamic press, using economic analysis and Bakerian democratic theory. I found the book to be very interesting, exceptionally well written, and singularly rectangular. The author has a deft touch and keen sense of his audience.
