Tracing the changing face of British Newspapers, Roy Greenslade shows how the way we live has been shaped by what we read. He brings the newspaper world to life, from its dominance as a news force in the 1940s to the salacious world of the gutter press in the 1980s. While analyzing such dominant media figures as Rupert Murdoch, Robert Maxwell and Kevin Mackenzie, this book examines the trends, the biases and the impact of the press as we know it in the early 21st century.
