Dirty Politics: Deception, Distraction, and Democracy
Kathleen Hall Jamieson

Oxford University Press, USA, 1993

Engaging Arguments

unSpun: Finding Facts in a World of Disinformation

Random House Trade Paperbacks, 2007

Un Spun- Finding Facts
I loved the Book! Great information for someone that wants to learn the political system. Since there is so much propaganda out there, this was a great book to understanding some of it. Short and to the point...not a big book...but long on fact finding.

The Press Effect: Politicians, Journalists, and the Stories that Shape the Political World
Kathleen Hall Jamieson, Paul Waldman

Oxford University Press, USA, 2004

Everything You Think You Know About Politics...and Why You're Wrong
Kathleen Hall Jamieson

Basic Books, 2000

The scale of their fieldwork is such that they have been able to isolate key ...

The Institutions of American Democracy: The Press (Institutions of American Democracy Series)

Oxford University Press, USA, 2006

The Press

Deeds Done in Words: Presidential Rhetoric and the Genres of Governance
