Description

Douglas Kellner's The Persian Gulf TV War by Routledge examines how television shaped public perception during the 1991 Gulf conflict. This influential work of social theory and media criticism reveals the myths and propaganda disseminated through television coverage whilst documenting how the medium amplified government war policies at the expense of anti-war perspectives and substantive debate. Kellner demonstrates television's failure to fulfil its democratic responsibility to inform the public and explore the multifaceted issues at stake. By analysing the dominant frames that structured television reporting, this book exposes how the medium became a conduit for official narratives rather than a forum for genuine political discourse. Essential reading for media scholars, historians, and anyone seeking to understand the relationship between broadcasting and power during major geopolitical events.

Key Features

The Persian Gulf TV War examines television's role as a propaganda vehicle during the 1991 Gulf conflict.

Kellner's analysis reveals how dominant media frames silenced anti-war voices and prevented meaningful public debate.

This Routledge publication combines social theory, media criticism, and political history into a comprehensive examination.

The book demonstrates television's failure to assume its democratic responsibilities toward the American public.

A foundational text for understanding media influence on foreign policy perception and political discourse.
