Summary

This topical collection examines the changing role of political journalism in the era of the soundbite and the spin-doctor. Topics covered include the manipulation of journalists by politicians and vice versa, spin-doctoring, the "dumbing-down" of the political debate, the reporting of scandals and the invention of new styles of journalism such as the American concept of "Public Journalism".
