Description
-
Analysis of the media's role in the Waco tragedy, with particular attention given to the "psychologizing" of the issue and how the media tied Branch Davidian developments to popular anticultist ideology. Draws on Herman and Chomsky's (1988) "propaganda model" to explain the media's role as an instrument of U.S. elites.
