[Commlist] New Book: ''Economic Inequality and News Media ...''

New Book:
*Grisold, Andrea and Paschal Preston (Eds.) 2020 'Economic Inequality 
and News Media: Discourse, Power, and Redistribution'.  Oxford 
University. Press.*

DESCRIPTION :
Despite the rediscovery of the inequality topic by economists and other 
social scientists in recent times, relatively little is known about how 
economic inequality is mediated to the wider public. That is precisely 
where this book steps in: it examines how mainstream news media discuss, 
respond to, and engage with such important trends. The book addresses 
significant ‘blind spots’ in the two disciplinary areas most related to 
this book—political economy and media/journalism studies. Firstly, key 
issues related to economic inequalities tend to be neglected in media 
and journalism studies field. Secondly, mainstream economics have paid 
relatively little attention to the evolving scope and role of mediated 
communication.
