Reply to the Critics: On Challenging Ideal Types.

Nerone, John C.

Critical Studies in Mass Communication, v4 n4 p419-22 Dec 1987

Presents a reply to the critics of his essay (this issue). Indicates that recent histories have strengthened the monopoly that the penny press has achieved in the discussion of journalism history in the 1830s and beyond, often while reasserting questionable claims about market structure, readership, political stance, and national and historical significance.
