I've been studying and working in the media for a long time, and run a magazine on business ethics (ethicalcorp.com). Flat Earth news is one of the best books I have read on the media and global affairs. We should all suggest our friends and contacts read it. Thank goodness that at least one paper (The Guardian) is interested in journalistic ethics. Another great book on untold stories is World on Fire by Amy Chua, check it out.
