Special Victim Status, The Era Of Woke Journalism

This book exposes how the media racializes and genderizes news coverage to fit its far left "progressive" agenda-with bias baked into every aspect of news organizations these days. This work sets the record straight. Mantell reveals how the New York Times and The Washington Post use certain well-defined propaganda techniques to stir up outrage over police shootings of unarmed black males, while downplaying coverage of shootings of unworthy victims such as white people and police officers. Surveys show that the majority of Americans think the media is biased, and the American press gets especially low marks among Western nations. But while many know something is wrong, most can't explain how media bias works. This book goes further and shows how the press distorts all kinds of crime coverage, playing up the danger from the right while downplaying violent crime by the left. It also exposes how the media has become one of the biggest threats to free speech today. This work refutes Noam Chomsky's Manufacturing Consent, showing how everything has changed since he published his book in the 1980s; it reveals how far-left extremism has taken over the press. This book may be the most damning critique of the American media ever published. It explains how media bias started, how it works, and what to do about it."Publishers told me people don't care about proof. This book is for people who do." -The author
