Description

Explore a deep analysis of media influence in Douglas Kellner's The Persian Gulf TV War. Published by Routledge, this book examines how television functioned during the Gulf War, acting as a tool for government policy while limiting public debate. Kellner provides a detailed look at the myths and propaganda that shaped news coverage during this period. This work combines social theory, media criticism, and political history to explain how television coverage impacted the American public. By looking at the dominant frames used by news outlets, the book reveals how anti-war voices were often sidelined. It serves as a study of how media outlets handle complex political issues and whether they meet their responsibility to inform the public and facilitate democratic discussion.
