The Politics of Deceit
|
A compelling indictment of the Bush Administration's cynical, anti-democratic manipulation of the media
In this devastating analysis of American politics today, a former Democratic campaign advisor pulls back the curtain on the pervasive political manipulation of the media-and reveals just how fragile our democracy is. From political ads and talk shows to mainstream media reporting, Glenn W. Smith shows how American political discourse is now dominated by carefully scripted images and rhetoric. Foreword by Molly Ivins.
