Power Beyond Scrutiny uncovers the forces which distort and limit public debate in the media. From the misuse of politicians' expenses to recent phone hacking scandals, establishment corruption has never been more in the headlines. Yet amidst the din there have been seismic silences. Justin Schlosberg interrogates these silences - why did a plea bargain which allowed Britain's biggest arms company to escape bribery prosecution go almost entirely unchallenged in television news? Why did journalists routinely endorse the official explanation of how intelligence analyst David Kelly died, whilst ignoring the mounting evidence which undermined it? Why, in 2010, did broadcasters offer an unchallenged platform to critics of Wikileaks but not its supporters? These are some of the questions and imbalances that Schlosberg seeks to address as he explains the nature of public debate in the digital age. In doing so he uncovers a range of news blockages that are more than just accidents of a fragmented, chaotic mediascape. They are ultimately ideological forces which ensure that contestability and dissent remain within definable limits. - Inbunden, Engelska, 2019

During the summer of 2018, numerous members of the Labour Party were accused of anti-Semitic behaviour by their detractors. The controversy reached fever pitch amid claims that the Labour Party had become 'institutionally racist' under the leadership of Jeremy Corbyn, and that the prospect of a Corbyn-led government posed an 'existential threat' to Jewish life in Britain. Shrouded in confusion, hyped by the media, whether these accusations were true or not got lost in the mix.This book clears the confusion by drawing on deep and original research on public beliefs and media representation of antisemitism and the Labour Party, revealing shocking findings of misinformation spread by the press, including the supposedly impartial BBC, and the liberal Guardian.Bringing in discussions around the IHRA definition, anti-Zionism and Israel/Palestine, as well as including a clear chronology of events, this book is a must for anyone wanting to find out the reality behind the headlines. - Häftad, Engelska, 2019

Media Ownership and Agenda Control offers a detailed examination of media ownership amidst the complexities of the information age, from the resurgence of press barons to the new influence wielded by internet giants. Much of the discussion pivots around recent revelations and controversies in the media industry, such as the findings published in 2012 from the Leveson Inquiry, the US Federal Communications Commission’s ruling on net neutrality in 2015, Edward Snowden’s decision to leak National Security Agency (NSA) documents in 2013 and the legal battles over ancillary copyrights waged in Germany and elsewhere. Justin Schlosberg traces the obscure and often unnoticed ways in which agendas continue to be shaped by a small number of individual and institutional megaphones, despite the rise of grassroots and participatory platforms, and despite ubiquitous displays of adversarial journalism. Above all, it explores the web of connections and interdependence that binds old and new media gatekeepers, and cements them to the surveillance and warfare state. This ultimately foregrounds the book’s call for a radical rethink of ownership regulation, situating the movement for progressive media reform alongside wider struggles against the iniquities and injustices of global capitalism.This book’s re-evaluation of the nature of media ownership and control in a postdigital world will prove to be an invaluable resource for students of media studies and journalism, as well as all those with an interest in the changing dynamics of media power.Get involved: Reclaimthemedia.org - Häftad, Engelska, 2016

We are told that democracy is under threat because the veryidea of 'truth' is in crisis. Fake news spreads unchecked, social media warpsour sense of reality and the misinformed public are blamed for the resultingpolitical division and instability. Governments and media institutions alikeincreasingly insist that the future of democracy depends on winning the 'war ondisinformation'.But what if this diagnosis is wrong?In Policing the Truth, Justin Schlosberg argues thatthe real danger lies not in the spread of disinformation but in the growingculture of information control. He reveals how powerful institutions acrossliberal and populist democracies increasingly determine what can be known, saidand believed - while dissent and scepticism are routinely dismissed as threatsto truth itself.Drawing on years of rigorous original research, in-depthhistorical analysis and his own experiences as a self-described 'rogueacademic'- including sustained legal threats and public attacks triggered byresearch featured in this book - Schlosberg exposes the hidden mechanisms of anew form of McCarthyism that has taken root in Britain and beyond. As well astracing the historical origins of this phenomenon, he explains why today'sbattle over truth is, at its core, a struggle over who gets to define reality.Policing the Truth is a timely and necessaryintervention into one of the defining political and media debates of our ageand offers a powerful new framework for understanding democracy and freespeech. - E-bokEngelska, 2013
