With the exception of Air America, all of these new media outlets have found commercial success—marking, says Hamm, a new era in liberal politics.\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Does this new media matter? In 2004, both Michael Moore and MoveOn became major players; more recently, the influence of the netroots has sparked upheaval and debate within the Democratic Party. \u003ci\u003eThe New Blue Media\u003c\/i\u003e examines this phenomenon in depth, and the reshaping of both the style and the substance of progressivism.","brand":"Theodore Hamm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42956271091830,"sku":"9781595580405","price":24.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0671\/1374\/6550\/files\/CoreSourceHub_3b16b5f9-93f8-4819-9be7-b7c9cb274c38.jpg?v=1767716774","url":"https:\/\/ingramacademic.com\/products\/the-new-blue-media-9781595580405","provider":"Ingram Academic \u0026 Professional","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
