More about the book
The book examines the media's influence on contemporary politics, particularly in the context of events like Brexit and the rise of nationalist populism. It critiques the media's selective memory regarding the causes of economic crises, such as the 2008 financial crash and austerity measures, arguing that it promotes a narrative focused on public sector excess and immigration rather than the failures of 'free market' capitalism. Basu contends that understanding this media power is crucial for addressing ongoing economic challenges and breaking free from cycles of crisis.
