When an epidemic strikes, media outlets are central to how an outbreak is framed and understood. While reporters construct stories intended to inform the public and convey essential information from doctors and politicians, news narratives also serve as historical records, capturing sentiments, responses, and fears throughout the course of the epidemic. This book demonstrates how news reporting on epidemics communicates more than just information about pathogens; rather, prejudices, political agendas, religious beliefs, and theories of disease also shape the message. Analyzing seven epidemics spanning more than two hundred years - from Boston's smallpox epidemic and Philadelphia's yellow fever epidemic in the eighteenth century to outbreaks of diphtheria, influenza, and typhoid in the early twentieth century - the author discusses how shifts in journalism and medicine influenced the coverage, preservation, and fictionalization of different disease outbreaks. Each case study highlights facets of this interplay, delving into topics such as colonization, tourism, war, and politics. Through this investigation into what has been preserved and forgotten in the collective memory of disease, the author sheds light on current health care debates, like vaccine hesitancy.

Cet ouvrage retrace les grandes mutations qui ont traversé le secteur de la presse écrite en France depuis 1945.De l'épanouissement de la presse quotidienne, au lendemain de la guerre, à l'envolée puis la domination de la presse magazine ; de l'ère des groupes de presse à celle d'Internet, ces étapes sont appréhendées conjointement. En quelques décennies, les pratiques de lecture ont remodelé le spectre des journaux français et les pratiques professionnelles des journalistes. Les transformations des titres comme celles des journalistes, de l'économie, des conditions de production, des formats, des contenus, des techniques et du lectorat permettent de comprendre la situation de la presse aujourd'hui.
