About this audiobook
Six-time New York Times bestselling author, FOX News star, and radio host Mark R. Levin “trounces the news media” (The Washington Times) in this timely and groundbreaking book demonstrating how the great tradition of American free press has degenerated into a standardless profession that has squandered the faith and trust of the public.
Unfreedom of the Press is not just another book about the press. In “Levin’s finest work” (Breitbart), he shows how those entrusted with news reporting today are destroying freedom of the press from within—not through actions of government officials, but with its own abandonment of reportorial integrity and objective journalism.
With the depth of historical background for which his books are renowned, Levin takes you on a journey through the early American patriot press, which proudly promoted the principles set forth in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. This is followed by the early decades of the Republic during which newspapers around the young country were open and transparent about their fierce allegiance to one political party or another.
It was only at the start of the Progressive Era and the 20th century that the supposed “objectivity of the press” first surfaced, leaving us where we are today: with a partisan party-press overwhelmingly aligned with a political ideology but hypocritically engaged in a massive untruth as to its real nature.

Mark Levin is truly a brilliant minded individual who lays things out in a concise logical fashion. I suspect his critics are either jealous or less than intellectual. Unfreedom of the Press is a comprehensive delve into both the history and the current actions of the American Media. If taken in objectively, learning will ensue. Mark Levin is a bright spot in the current landscape of dark media. His words are a beacon to honest Americans seeking truth.

I listened to it twice over Memorial Day weekend... and I'm not finished re-reading it. I was captivated by every word yet there are no words to describe just how deeply I was moved. This should be assigned reading in every synagogue. Thank you Mr. Levin... we want more.

IF THIS BOOK IS NOT WORTH A PULITZER NONE ARE ! FORGET THE MEDIA HYPE AND LIES . FOCUS ON WHAT LEVIN HAS POINTED OUT AS A INSUFFERABLE CLASS OF WANT TO BE "STARS" INSTEAD OF REPORTERS OF THE "NEWS"!
