Summary and discussion. 330 $aThis book assesses the extent to which British news organizations gave exposure and credence to different political interpretations of economics and business news in the decade before the 2008 Financial Crisis. Through the content analysis of some 1,600 news items, this study provides compelling empirical evidence to inform often theoretical debates about neoliberal assumptions in the media. In each of the three pre-2008 case studies - economic globalization, private finance and public services, and Tesco - Merrill finds that the Telegraph, The Times, the Sunday Times and, to varying extents, the Guardian-Observer and the BBC gave limited exposure and credence to ideas from the left of the political spectrum. As such, he builds an important comparative picture of economic, business and financial journalism in the period before the defining event of the decade, the effects of which continue to resonate. 606 $aJournalism 606 $aEthnology$zGreat Britain 606 $aCulture 606 $aBusiness enterprises$xFinance 606 $aJournalism 606 $aBritish Culture 606 $aCorporate Finance 615 0$aJournalism. 615 0$aEthnology 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aBusiness enterprises$xFinance. 615 14$aJournalism. 615 24$aBritish Culture. 615 24$aCorporate Finance. 676 $a070.44965 676 $a070.44965 700 $aMerrill$b Gary James$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01225731 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910484131703321 996 $aThe Political Content of British Economic, Business and Financial Journalism$92845858 997 $aUNINA
