Do you ever feel overwhelmed and powerless after watching the news?
Does it make you feel sad about the world, without much hope for
its future? Take a breath - the world is not as bad as the
headlines would have you believe. In You Are What You Read,
campaigner and researcher Jodie Jackson helps us understand how our
current twenty-four-hour news cycle is produced, who decides what
stories are selected, why the news is mostly negative and what
effect this has on us as individuals and as a society. Combining
the latest research from psychology, sociology and the media, she
builds a powerful case for including solutions in our news
narrative as an antidote to the negativity bias. You Are What You
Read is not just a book, it is a manifesto for a movement: it is
not a call for us to ignore the negative but rather a call to not
ignore the positive. It asks us to change the way we consume the
news and shows us how, through our choices, we have the power to
improve our media diet, our mental health and just possibly the
world.
