Reviews
There is much to be learned from the book's point-by-point analysis and...appeal for higher standards in journalism. --The New York Times<br> Jamieson has authored a number of substantial books about politics, and her latest does not disappoint. --National Journal<br> A disturbing picture of how poorly the media cover political discourse [and] why the press so often fails. --Denver Post<br> Based on meticulous research and pretty well scrubbed free of bias, this highly readable book is the latest work in an established vein of media criticism aimed at telling us why we are getting short-changed and telling reporters how to improve.... The book's analysis of what has gone wrong and what is likely to go wrong in the future constitutes a well-judged and useful dissection of our flawed media. --The New Leader<br>
