A Reader's Guide to Chomsky and Herman's Manufacturing Consent (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781686318245)

Noam Chomsky and Edward Herman's 1988 "Manufacturing Consent" was a seminal tract in media studies. As Matt Taibbi suggested, after thirty years, it could use an update. This Readers' Guide updates Chomsky and Herman's observations, a re-examines their propaganda model. Manufacturing Consent weighs in at 500 pages. This Readers' Guide clocks in at 20k words, which takes about 90 minutes to read. It is not a substitute for reading Manufacturing Consent, but it will give the curious a pretty good idea of Manufacturing Consent's main theses, its critics views, and an analysis of its themes in today's media environment.The second edition appends a review and analysis of Matt Taibbi's 2019 "Hate Inc."
