N2  - The Politics of Media Policy provides a critical perspective on the dynamics of media policy in the US and UK and offers a comprehensive guide to some of the major points of debate in the media today. While many policymakers boast of the openness and pluralism of their media systems,  this book exposes the commitment to market principles that saturates the media policy environment and distorts the development and application of democratic media policies.
