Recenzje

The world is on fire and the public doesn't simply need better reporting on the height of the blaze, the strength of the wind, and the extent of the damage, however important. We also urgently need to put out the blaze! Reckoning offers a powerful call to action, coupling ethnographic insights and visionary analyses, situating journalism within a wider field of action, and offering deeply incisive accounts of what it means to be a systems journalistone who cares not only about what happened, but what will happen
