Mass Media, Mass Propaganda: Understanding the News in the 'War on Terror' (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780739119037)

This work examines how the mainstream American media reacts to pro-war and anti-war themes throughout the 'War on Terror' in regards to the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. Using a political economy approach, the author addresses the ways in which corporations that own media reinforce official doctrines and propaganda by contrasting the content of American media to that of other global media.
