Media Reviews
Detailed case studies provide a welcome documentation of ground-level practice and bring out the complexities of current media-political relations in a way that more generalised polemical pieces often fail to do. -- Parliamentary Affairs. An excellent introduction to journalism and political spin in contemporary British politics. -- Media, Culture & Society. Well researched and highly readable, it will be of great interest to media and political communicaton specialists. -- Party Politics. The focus is on the management of television coverage of annual party conferences, until now a theme not covered in British academic media research. -- The Political Quarterly. Stanyer's book provides fascinating insights into the current organization, conduct and mediation of the modern party political conference in the UK. -- European Journal of Communication.
