[ANDREA BARRETT W.W.Norton], winner of the 19% National Book Award, mentions George Eliot twice in The Air We Breathe, and she shares Eliot's sharp but surprisingly tender gaze upon humanity and its frailties, her unhurried narrative pace, and especially her keen scientific curiosity. (She also shares Eliot's subtle but fierce feminism: Her narrative is largely driven by two ardent young women.)

The four theories of the press have long dominated in journalism education and research and arguably do a good job of describing media systems in the West. However, it is hard to fit Asian media systems into the existing theories. This paper re-examines the four press theories and identifies the difficulties in using the theories as a guide to understand media systems in Asia. The purpose of this paper is to raise issues with the applicability of the theories in an Asian media context and explore a new paradigm, which would bring in cultural values from both the East and the West.
