Neoliberal policy approaches have swept over the American political
economy in recent decades. In Framing Inequality, Matt Guardino
focuses on the power of corporate news media in shaping how the
public understands the pivotal policy debates of this period.
Drawing on a wide range of empirical evidence from the dawn of the
Reagan era into the Trump administration, he explains how profit
pressures and commercial imperatives in the media have narrowed and
trivialized news coverage and influenced public attitudes in the
process. Guardino highlights how the political-economic structure
of mainstream media operates to magnify some political messages and
to mute or shut out others. He contends that news framing of
policies that contribute to economic inequality has been unequal,
and that this has undermined Americans' opportunities to express
their views on an equal basis. Framing Inequality is a unique study
that offers critical understanding of not only how neoliberalism
succeeded as a political project, but also how Americans might
begin to build a more democratic and egalitarian media system.
