It includes an exclusive interview with Noam Chomsky himself.</p><p>2018 marks 30 years since the publication of Edward Herman and Noam Chomsky's ground-breaking book <em>Manufacturing Consent</em>, which lifted the veil over how the mass media operate. The book's model presented five filters which all potentially newsworthy events must pass through before they reach our TV screens, smartphones or newspapers. In <em>Propaganda in the Information Age</em>, many of the world's leading media scholars, analysts and journalists use this model to explore the modern media world, covering some of the most pressing contemporary topics such as fake news, Cambridge Analytica, the Syrian Civil War and Russiagate. The collection also acknowledges that in an increasingly globalized world, our media is increasingly globalized as well, with chapters exploring both Indian and African media. </p><p>For students of Media Studies, Journalism, Communication and Sociology, <em>Propaganda in the Information Age</em> offers a fascinating introduction to the propaganda model and how it can be applied to our understanding not only of how media functions in corporate America, but across the world in the twenty-first century.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><strong>Alan MacLeod</strong> is a member of the Glasgow Media Group and completed his PhD in 2017.
