‘This timely and essential book presents a searing blueprint for
democratizing our media. Expertly combining theory and
critique with praxis, the book does exactly what a manifesto should
do – it provides readers with the necessary analytical tools and
culminates with a call to action. Another system is possible,
and these brilliant scholar-activists show us the way
forward!'
Victor Pickard, Annenburg School for Communication, University of
Pennsylvania
‘Media giants, fake news, data justice. This is the essential guide
to what is wrong with today’s media and how to make it
right.’
Vincent Mosco, author of The Smart City in a Digital World
‘a powerful and imaginative proposition that not only insightfully
articulates the complexity of the problem but also makes a start at
(re)conceptualising a radical political imaginary. Indeed, this
manifesto has not only captured the spirit (or spectre) of change
that our age sorely needs but has made a wonderfully inspiring
start at materialising it.’

‘The Media Manifesto is a refreshing text that is not scared of
stepping on the toes of powerful media organizations and dominant
media theories of our times. ...this book will be of immense value
to anyone who shares the authors’ vision for an emancipated society
that rests on the principles of justice, liberty and
democracy.’
