Corporate Media

A great place to start are the videos Orwell Rolls in His Grave (2005) followed by Manufacturing Consent: Noam Chomsky and the Media (2002) and Outfoxed: Rupert Murdoch’s War on Journalism (2004)

Also useful is the CD Media Control: The Spectacular Achievements of Propaganda

Lies the Media Tell Us by James Winter (2007) provides a wide-ranging look at how corporate media distorts many of our economic and political issues both in Canada and elsewhere.

Another valuable source of information on American corporate media is Counterspin on CJSR FM 88.5 on Tuesdays at 5:30 PM as well as the magazine Extra!
