Readings on religion as news

"Readings on Religion as News provides a rich legacy of reporting spanning 300 years, from the Puritans' era to the present, that simultaneously tells the story of American faith and religion reporting's ascent to one of the hottest newspaper beats today." "For the first time, educators and writers alike have an engaging, informative collection of historic and current religion stories from U.S. daily newspapers. These stories cover some of the key political, social, and religious controversies during the founding of the nation, including freedom of religion, slavery, the Scopes Trial, and temperance. In addition, the formation of key denominations and religious groups is documented in some of the first secular reports of those groups."--Jacket.
