Description
In this groundbreaking work, Edward S. Herman and Noam Chomsky outline their Propaganda Model. Using a series of case studies—including the media’s dichotomous treatment of "worthy" versus "unworthy" victims, "legitimizing" and "meaningless" Third World elections, and devastating critiques of media coverage of the U. S. wars against Indochina—they argue that the media is used to protect the economic, social, and political agendas of the privileged groups that dominate domestic society, the state, and the global order.
