"""The book is skilled at reflecting changing relations between the police, press and public relations. It is a valuable resource for scholars, police and media practitioners worldwide on the changing landscapes of crime, policing and reporting."" LSE Review of Books ""This is a valuable publication for journalism scholars and practitioners mainly due to its wide-ranging list of data from empirical research and theoretical resources. Journalists beyond the UK will identify similar structural problems in their relations with police and challenges in accessing data related to criminal investigations."" Communication Today ""I can claim without any irony that this book meets the criteria for exemplary investigative journalism so often lacking in legacy media reports. Colbran is completely successful in both identifying a gap in scholarship and filling it - this is a timely and signal contribution to cultural criminology, critical criminology and zemiology."" Crime, Media, Culture ""This book delivers on its promise and will resonate with audiences that have a tradition of policing by consent. Colbran is well situated to respond with research into who makes the opening gambit on an increased reciprocity between police and media producers, and how it plays out."" Policing and Society"
