Global President - International Media and the Us Government

Informationen zum Autor By Stephen J. Farnsworth; S. Robert Lichter and Roland Schatz Klappentext When the US government speaks, the world listens, regardless of whether people like what they hear. News reporters and citizens around the world pay considerable attention to the statements of US presidents and the actions of the US government. In The Global President: International Communication and the US Government, scholars Stephen J. Farnsworth, S. Robert Lichter and Roland Schatz provide an expansive international examination of news coverage of US political communication, and the roles the US government and the Presidency play in an increasingly communicative and interconnected political world. Based on a wealth of data from countries around the world on the image of the America in TV news over the past decade, this impressive study is a must-read for understanding how perceptions of the country and its leaders have changed and the potential for the President of the United States to exert strategic influence. -- Holli A.
