How does news circulate in a major post-industrial city? And how in turn are identities and differences formed and mediated through this circulation? This seminal work is the first to offer an empirical examination, and trace a city’s pattern of, news circulation.

By doing so, it opens up a discussion: do we know what news is? What types of media constitute it? And why does it matter?
