Seib explores the many ways in which news coverage shapes the
design and implementation of foreign policy. By influencing the
political attitudes of opinion-shaping elites and the public at
large, the news media can profoundly affect the conduct of foreign
policy. Seib's text analyzes important examples of press influence
on foreign affairs: the news media's definition of success and
failure, as in reporting the 1968 Tet Offensive in Vietnam; how
public impatience, fueled by news reports, can pressure presidents,
as happened during the Iran hostage crisis of 1979-81; how
presidents can anticipate and control news media coverage, as was
done by the Bush administration during the 1991 Gulf War; how press
revelation or suppression of secret information affects policy, as
in the cases of the Bay of Pigs, the Cuban missile crisis, and
various intelligence operations; how coverage of humanitarian
crises affects public opinion; the challenges of live TV coverage;
and the changing influence of news in the post-Cold War world. By
covering a wide range of issues and examples, this important text
will stimulate thoughtful appraisal of the relationships between
the news media and those who make policy. It will be of interest to
students and scholars in journalism, political communication, and
international relations.
