Through close readings of recent news events and critical examination of corporate influence, Bettig and Hall conclude that current interconnections among media, big business, government, and education pose a serious threat to democratic communications. The second edition includes three new chapters, covering the contemporary Hollywood film industry; the changing landscape of the music industry; and “ad creep,” the proliferation of advertising into previously ad-free venues such as schools and children’s television programming.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 237mmItem Length: 158mmItem Width: 30mmItem Weight: 717gAuthor: Ronald V.
