Description - The Glasgow Media Group Reader by John Eldridge

In recent years, the Glasgow University Media Group's assertion of the role of the media plays in shaping the audience's understanding of current affairs has provided a crucial counter argument to theorists of postmodernity such as Jean Baudrillard. These two collections bring together key articles and writings by members of the Group from the early 1970s to the 1990s, making available for students material from the Group's books, "Bad News", "More Bad News", "Really Bad News", and "War and Peace News". This first volume focuses on issues of news content, language and the role of visual images in news reporting. It includes case studies of media coverage of Greenham Common and the controversy surrounding "the Church and the Bomb".
