Poor-Bashing Book

Exposes the ideology of poor-bashing. Not a survey of poverty, this is a popular analysis of the way poor people are depicted in the media. When reporters cover poverty stories, they use a special language of poor-bashing which * disguises the real causes of poverty * hurts and excludes poor people * cheapens the labor of people with jobs * takes the pressure off the rich to fight poverty She also reveals how government and corporate clients use poor-bashing focus groups to support their self-referential viewpoint. Clear, passionate and well-researched, the book includes * the history of poor people in the media * the media image of the poor * how the poor can counter these depictions. Read More
