By the 1970s, the country’s oldest continuously published newspaper had fallen on hard times, just like its nearly bankrupt hometown. When the New York Post was sold to a largely unknown Australian named Rupert Murdoch in 1976, staffers hoped it would be the start of a new golden age for the paper. Now, after the nearly fifty years Murdoch has owned the tabloid, American culture reflects what Murdoch first started in the 1970s: a celebrity-focused, noisy, one-sided media empire that reached its zenith with Fox News.

Story
Early in her radio career Susie Ferguson became a war correspondent. The only woman among hundreds of soldiers, in a helmet and flak jacket she was one of the boys. None of them knew she was taking fifteen painkillers a day and relying on opioids to stem the burning and stabbing pain in her uterus. Even bloody-minded grit couldn't have prepared Susie for womanhood.

Story
Die Mauer ist gerade erst gefallen. Im mecklenburgischen Neustrelitz verlässt der 19-jährige Charly Hübner sein Elternhaus im Streit. Er findet Zuflucht am Theater und in der Literatur, liest wie besessen und landet nahezu unumgänglich bei den Jahrestagen von Uwe Johnson. Ein dicker Wälzer, der trotz der manchmal sperrigen Sprache und verwinkelten Erzählweise einen so noch nie erlebten Sog auf den damaligen Teenager ausübte. Aus dem Teenager von damals ist heute einer der beliebtesten deutschen Schauspieler geworden – während Johnson mehr und mehr in Vergessenheit geraten ist.

Story
Born on the West Coast, the son of Bronx-born parents, Steve Wasserman is a generalist and public intellectual but is perhaps less well known as a cultural essayist and social critic of the first rank. In thirty splendid essays, originally published in such diverse publications as The New Republic and The Nation, The American Conservative and The Progressive, The Village Voice and The Economist, Wasserman delivers a riveting account of the awakening of an empathetic sensibility and a lively mind.
