Our media systems are in crisis. Run by unaccountable corporations and 
dominated by agendas and algorithms that are shrouded in mystery, these 
formerly trusted sources have lost their way. As consumers, we have 
plenty of choice, but as citizens we have an abundance of misinformation 
and misrepresentation.

Four prominent media scholars and activists put forth a roadmap for 
radical reform of concentrated media power. They argue that we should 
put media justice, economic democracy and social equality at the heart 
of our scholarship and our campaigning.

/The Media Manifesto/ delivers a sharp analysis of our communications 
crisis and a passionate call for change. It provides hope for media 
reform movements across the globe.



"This essential book presents a searing blueprint for democratizing our 
media. It does exactly what a manifesto should do – it provides readers 
with the necessary analytical tools and culminates with a call to 
action. Another system is possible, and these brilliant 
scholar-activists show us the way forward!"
*Victor Pickard, University of Pennsylvania*

"Media giants, fake news, data justice. This is the essential guide to 
what is wrong with today’s media and how to make it right."
*Vincent Mosco, author of /The Smart City in a Digital World/*
