Packaging Politics: Political Communications in Britain's Media Democracy

3.4/5 ( ratings)

Examines the various ways politicians, spin doctors and special advisors from Parliament to local government have become increasingly enthusiastic and effective in their utilization of mass media to present and promote themselves and their policies to the public.
