Synopsis:

For many people an issue does not exist until appears in the news media. Indeed, what we even define as an issue or event, what we see and hear, and what we do not see and hear are greatly determined by those who control the communications world. One book cannot cover all that might be said about the media. The author concentrates on national and international politico-economic class issues, with some attention given to the racist and sexist biases in the media.

Book Description: Palgrave MacMillan, United Kingdom, 1993. Paperback. Book Condition: New. 2nd Revised edition. 208 x 139 mm. Brand New Book with Free Worldwide Delivery. This study looks at the role of the print and electronic media in defining "respectable" political discourse in the United States. From a critical perpective, Parenti looks at the economics and politics of "presenting" the news and argues that the media systematically distort the news. This manufactured reality deprives the public of necessary information for effective participation in government. This edition has been updated throughout, and there is coverage of the media's treatment of the US invasion of Panama, the war against Iraq and the collapse of communism. Other titles by Michael Parenti include "Democracy for the Few", "Power and the Powerless", "The Sword and the Dollar: Imperialism, Revolution and the Arms Race" and "Make-Believe Media: The Politics of Entertainment".
