Description
New media are often greeted with suspicion by older media. The Fourth Estate at the Fourth Wall explores how, when the commercial press arrived in France in 1836, popular theatre critiqued its corruption, its diluted politics, and its tendency to orient its content toward the lowest common denominator.
