Abstract

In a reflection on the founding of American Journalism in 1983 by Gary Whitby, this fortieth anniversary essay examines the earliest beginnings of the journal, and the chief aims of the individuals who helped establish the journal: to improve historical scholarship through superior historiography. This essay argues that Whitby’s founding of American Journalism did more than help scholars advance in their profession. It was also a critical event in advancing historical scholarship among journalism and mass communication scholars.
