'Ralph Negrine and James Stanyer have constructed a valuable treasury of the key research and scholarly writing by distinguished academics, which has shaped the contemporary field of political communication. Lippmann’s analysis of public opinion, Hall Jamieson’s discussion of the ‘packaging of the Presidency’, as well as Robert McChesney’s insightful unravelling of the implications of the economic organisation of US media for democracy, are just a few of the intellectual nuggets horded inside the covers of The Political Communication Reader. There are many other gems to enjoy. It is essential reading for anyone who wishes to be well informed about current debates and developments in the expansive field of political communication.'– Bob Franklin, Professor of Journalism Studies, Cardiff School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies, UK
