Comprised of six sections, the first examines how the history of the mass media and the role religion played in its growth. The second looks at how the major media formats--print, broadcast, and online--deal with religion. The next two examines how journalists cover major religious traditions and particular issues that have religion angles. The fifth examines the religious press, from the Christian Broadcasting Network to The Forward. The final section looks at how the American press covers the rest of the world.
