About The Book
In this eye-opening work, Malcolm Dean, a seasoned social affairs monitor for The Guardian, critiques the role of media in shaping social policy. Through seven detailed case studies, Dean examines the powerful influence of the media on public life, drawing on decades of Whitehall experience and interviews with over 150 policy-makers. With compelling stories and insights, the book dives deep into the often controversial relationship between journalism and social policy. It explores the ethics of modern journalism, offering a critical perspective on the 'seven deadly sins' of the media. The final chapter adds a timely reflection on the aftermath of the News International hacking scandal and the Leveson Inquiry, offering readers a rare and invaluable insider's perspective on the intersection of media, politics, and public policy.
