Manufacturing Consent review

3 stars

A very interesting book that puts forward the idea that mass corporate media acts as propaganda for their owners and government. It gives plenty of evidence for this, though I think most people would already understand half way through the book, so it becomes a bit of a slog to get through later on. On the whole though, still a good book and something everyone should read to understand how the world functions.
