Study this fascinating chapter carefully -- all of it. Take your time reading it.
The specific subject of Lundberg's book is Willam Randolph Hearst, and he has much information on Hearst, much of it very negative.
But the general subject is the influence of newspapers and their owners more broadly, especially in politics, and in political corruption involved.

PS: Lundberg lived a very long time, dying finally in 1995 at the age of 92.
Imperial Hearst was a famous book during the 1930s.
Lundberg spent most of his life writing about the American ruling class, in books such as America's 60 Families (1936); The Rich and the Super-Rich (1968); Cracks in the Constitution (1982), and others. A "Jeffersonian Democrat" rather than a leftist, in Modern Woman: The Lost Sex (1947) he evidently (I have not read this book) opined that women should stay at home and not enter the world of work.
The Wikipedia page on Lundberg is pretty good now!
And here is a link to an article by him from The New York Review of Books in 1976. I clipped this article when it was published, because I thought it was interesting that his book The Rich and the Super-Rich, on the best-seller list for weeks, was not reviewed by most magazines and newspapers!
