Reviews
""This is a work of critical fealty. It updates, revises and extends Herman and Chomsky's famous Propaganda Model of the media in a consistently interesting and attractively written way."" (James Curran, Professor of Communications at Goldsmiths, University of London) ""This book offers a fresh assessment of the most influential critical tool in news media analysis in the world today. Anyone interested in how the news enables or disables democratic governance should read it. Brian Michael Goss writes with clarity and passion. His careful appraisals of scholarly work and nuanced readings of recent episodes affirm the vitality of an amended propaganda model in the face of glib dismissals and unrealistic expectations for digital media. The result is a major contribution to the political economy of news. It is a reboot in the ass for pollyannas everywhere."" (John Nerone, University of Illinois)
