In this book, the authors build a propaganda model that describes the subservience of mainstream media to elite interests and government in the United States. They proceed to analyze the coverage of the Indochina wars and the so-called ‘emerging democracies' of Central America through their framework, thoroughly undressing the mainstream media's motives and actions in the process. A real tour de force by Chomsky and Herman.
