Economic and Business News on Television - How Political and Business Leaders Connect with Journalists and why Television News is Addicted to Leaders (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783639008814)

This book explores how political and business leaders are presented in television news and current affairs programs and how they promote their interests. It examines how television has become a captive of politicians because the media needs a reliable supply of news material. The histories and case studies examine Australian television, a mix of commercial and public broadcasting, and the methodology is adaptable to other countries. This book will inform journalists, media students, researchers, political and business leaders and others interested in political and economic communication.
