Fraudcast News by Patrick Chalmers
In Fraudcast News (external link) we follow the starry eyed apprentice reporter, full of hope for using the power of the media to address injustice and discover truth, through years of discovery as to how the system really works and why their dream job was a fraud. Along the way key insights are provided into both the media with its links to banking and finance, and the power machinery of modern decision processes in the economy. The scope of critique is international but with specific commentaries on Europe and Malaysia. This book is an autobiographical journey from faith to scepticism and finally activism. If you want to find out how the media works and why it fails to address social or environmental injustice there is no better place to start than Fraudcast News.
