"A highly insightful analysis of how to do media policy studies
in original and significant ways."
Australian Journalism Review
"Des Freedman has written a wonderful, original and
indispensable introduction to the exploding world of media policy
making. It deserves the attention of students, scholars and
citizens everywhere."
Robert W. McChesney, University of Illinois at
Urbana-Champaign
"Well-written, comprehensive and passionate, this will be a key
book on media policy."
David Hesmondhalgh, University of Leeds
"For many years, the study of media policy has lacked the thick
description of personal observation. Previous work has either been
caught in the detail of the law, or been distanced by the
abstraction of academic theory. Now we have a book that brings all
these important discourses together, thanks to Des Freedman's
fresh, interdisciplinary approach."
Toby Miller, University of California, Riverside
