Description: "Howard Kurtz turns his eye on the business-media revolution that has transformed the American economy.

He uncovers the backstage pressures at television shows like CNBC's Squawk Box and CNN's Moneyline; at old-media bastions like The Wall Street Journal and Business Week, which are racing to keep up with the twenty-four-hour news cycle; and at Internet start-ups like The Street.com and JagNotes, real-time operations in the very arena where fortunes are made and lost with stunning swiftness."--BOOK JACKET.
