Description

The 11 Myths of Media Violence challenges many of our commonly held beliefs and assumptions about the relationship between media and violence. Illustrated with examples such as common opinions about the amount of violence on television and the effects on children, W James Potter provides an in depth review of how governments, journalists and researchers are part of the problem and raises important questions that place the reader at the heart of the conflict.
