"Gwen Stowers, Associate Professor at National University ""Yes, there is a place for this book, especially with the connections to the media and public policy formation. I believe the book makes an original contribution particularly with the analysis of the Oz program [part of sample chapter]. It is important to show step by step how the public is manipulated.The material is timely and since these ideas are still not commonly know, the shelf life would be fairly long. . . . I recommend this book for publication."" Garret Albert Duncan, Associate Professor of Education, African and African-American Studies, and American Culture Studies, Washington University in St. Louis ""Right to Be Hostile is definitely a publishable project. Keep in mind that I have only had acces to the proposed book’s outline, a reference list, and Chapter 3. At the same time, I have no dpubt that the rest of the book is similarly grounded in solid scholarship and that Meiners will continue her wonderful job of rendering a hotely controversial subject and some rather dense ideas in ways to make them accessible to a broad audience, within and outside the academy."" ""Given how formidable her task, the result is nothing short of remarkable. No educator can read this book and be unchanged by it."" – Book Smarts, Patricia H. Hinchey, 6/16/08"
