Congress and journalism  

Définition

  • As the “People's Branch,” and primary policy-making body for the United States, Congress plays a central role in the American political system, and thus congressional journalism plays a vital role in informing the people about politics and policy so they in turn can better perform their jobs as citizens. Yet Congress is a paradoxical institution, and in many ways congressional journal-ism—indeed, the relationship between Congress and the media generally—is also paradoxical.
