Praise for the first edition: 'Stylish, readable and packed with telling examples from around the world, Mass Media, Politics and Democracy is wide-ranging in its coverage of different media and genres. In a world obscured by spin, soundbites and multivarious political conflict, John Street is an illuminating - and often entertaining - guide.' - Professor Douglas Kellner, UCLA

This widely used and popular text provides a broad-ranging analysis of the relationship between the media and politics. Revised and updated throughout, this second edition includes coverage of the mediatization of politics; of E-politics and governance; of the impact of 'reality TV'; and of issues raised by the reporting of war in Iraq.This widely used and popular text provides a broad-ranging analysis of the relationship between the media and politics.
