American and British Journalism.

The article focuses on the book "Sugar Pill," by T.S. Matthews. Most American cities can support no more than one morning newspaper and in at least 181 there is no competition because, if there is an evening paper, it is put out by the same management. The single-minded devotion to a particular segment of the population, characteristic of the London papers, is therefore impossible in this country. Hence a great deal of what Matthews has to say has little or no significance for American newspapermen who work for a different kind of institution.
