The Media Manifesto: New Book by Lina Dencik

Together with co-authors Natalie Fenton, Des Freedman and Justin Schlosberg, our Fellow, Lina Dencik put forth a roadmap for radical reform of concentrated media power.

Their new book, The Media Manifesto, to be published in August 2020, describes a crisis in the media systems, which are run by unaccountable corporations and dominated by agendas and algorithms that are shrouded in mystery. The result is that these formerly trusted sources of information and entertainment have lost their way.

The book delivers an analysis of our communications crisis and a passionate call for urgent change. It provides resources of hope for media reform movements across the globe.
