Attack the Messenger: How Politicians Turn You Against the Media

Attack the Messenger is an objective look at the loss of public trust in the news media-and the resulting threat to American democracy. Biased, sloppy, and sometimes deceitful reporting is partly to blame, but this book primarily examines how politicians declared war on the media's role as an honest broker of information-and won. Craig Crawford takes readers who crave truth in news through the power struggle between the government and mainstream media, as well as directs them on how to avoid political propaganda and find the most reliable news sources.Crawford, Craig is the author of 'Attack the Messenger: How Politicians Turn You Against the Media', published 2007 under ISBN 9780742538177 and ISBN 0742538176.
