Reviews
"The book is engaging and should be of interest to academics and general readers alike." ( CHOICE, November 2009) "The book is well-written, very informative, and engagingly convincing. Moeller develops a compelling argument on how politicians and media corporations package terrorism to attain political and economic ends. Moeller's book can resonate with various kinds of readers. In fact, many readers might find the book to be one of the best analyses of the media's coverage of terror." ( International Journal of Communication , 2009) "Susan Moeller trains her scholarly eye on the role of the media in our understanding of modern-day terrorism. She has produced a valuable, important, and timely study--essential reading for all of us." Marvin Kalb, Edward R. Murrow Professor Emeritus at Harvard University "A sober and timely analysis of the toxic mix of politics, terrorism, and the media since 9/11. Moeller lays bare the price paid by the West, but also points to a better way forward." Richard Sambrook, Director, BBC Global News "Packaging Terrorism is an urgently needed meditation on how journalism has too often failed to ask the hard questions about the 'War on Terror' and become instead a weapon of propaganda. Susan Moeller's timely book is a must-read for all concerned journalists and citizens." John Owen, Professor of International Journalism, City University, London "An outstanding in-depth analysis of one of the most difficult and controversial issues in modern journalism. Moeller critically dissects the roles of government and media, laying bare the spin, manipulation of language, and vested interests that all too often distort the true story and deceive the public." Stephen Jukes, Dean of the Media School at Bournemouth University; former Global Head of News at Reuters "If you need a thoughtful, thorough, and challenging survey of recent media treatment of terrorism, then this is it. Susan Moeller is a clever and realistic analyst of how journalism treats this vital subject. She has both an insider's understanding of the media and the intelligence and research to mount a critical attack on those who misrepresent the true nature of political violence." Charlie Beckett, London School of Economics; Director, POLIS "Susan Moeller has exploded a bomb, splintering the 'War on Terror.' This thoroughly researched book provides an X-ray image of the US and British media as they have grappled with reporting the news of terrorism and war. It is a stinging rebuke of this largely profit-driven profession and also a primer for students of journalism on how to cover war and violence to make us better informed citizens in a democracy." Nayan Chanda, Yale Center for the Study of Globalization

Synopsis
Packaging Terrorism investigates how American media have identified and covered international terrorism and violence since September 11, 2001. Compares US coverage with that of British and Arab media Discusses the priorities, assumptions, political debates, deadline pressures and bottom-line considerations that will continue to influence coverage in the future Suggests how terrorism could be better covered by the media going forwards, Packaging Terrorism is the account of a very simple idea. The idea is this: that it's not the acts of terrorism that most matter in the post 9/11 world, it's what we are told to think about the acts of terrorism. Politicians tell us what to think. The media tell us what to think. Even terrorists tell us what to think.|9781405173650|, Packaging Terrorism is the account of a very simple idea: it s not the acts of terrorism that most matter in the post 9/11 world, it s what we are told to think about the acts of terrorism. Politicians tell us what to think. The media tell us what to think. Even terrorists tell us what to think. They all want to attract our attention, and all have reasons for wanting us to think in a certain way. They all want to tell us why an act of terrorism matters. They all have agendas. They all are packaging terrorism for our consumption and we are the audience for all those disparate actors. Terrorism has become an everyday global event in Iraq, in Israel, in India, in Indonesia, and also in the United Kingdom and United States. Packaging Terrorism investigates how Western media have identified and covered international terrorism and violence since September 11, 2001. Comparing US coverage with that of British and of Arab media, Packaging Terrorism not only explores media coverage of terrorism around the world but also explains the priorities, assumptions, political debates, deadline pressures, and bottom-line considerations that will continue to influence this coverage in the future.

The book's condition was a bit worse than expected. With only a stock photo provided in the listing, a more detailed description of the book's condition should have been provided.
