Sinopsis

Media Bias Effects explores how media bias shapes public opinion and impacts trust in democratic institutions. It examines different forms of bias, such as framing and agenda-setting, revealing how these distortions influence our understanding of critical issues. For example, the book analyzes how biased reporting on climate change can affect public perception. This is especially relevant today, as misinformation spreads rapidly through social media and erodes faith in traditional news sources.  
The book's approach is unique, combining theoretical analysis with empirical evidence. It progresses by first establishing a foundation of understanding media bias, then analyzing specific cases of biased reporting, and finally exploring practical implications and solutions.  
By connecting communication studies with political science and sociology, Media Bias Effects offers a comprehensive view of how media narratives shape social identities and political attitudes. Ultimately, it aims to equip readers with the tools to critically evaluate media sources and engage in more informed discussions.

Drunk on Confidence -...

Heidi Anderson

“Being ‘Drunk on Confidence’ is not some throw-away phrase for an inspirational Insta caption, it’s a lifestyle, a complete shift in perspective that will help you feel empowered and confident every day.”

Radio and TV personality, Heidi Anderson was always the girl who wore a cardigan in summer to cover her arms, and board shorts to the beach on the rare occasion she dared to go. She spent years hating herself; silencing her body demons through sex, booze and boys.

Heidi knows what it’s like to feel alone, to deal with debilitating anxiety daily and to constantly try to please people; pretending to be okay on the outside, while suffering crushing insecurities on the inside.

After breaking down on live radio to 300 thousand listeners and making the nerve-racking confession,

“I wish I could sit here and tell you that I love myself because that’s what people expect me to say, but I can’t. I absolutely hate my body”

She experienced a life-changing moment.

Her gut-wrenching admission forced her to embrace her vulnerabilities, challenge her old beliefs and learn how to say a big fat ‘’Fuck You” to unrealistic beauty standards, and a big ‘’Up Yours’’ to all diets and society’s expectations.

Heidi is unapologetically authentic, her memoir is filled with honesty, humour and home-truths. She will show you how she dealt with her inner mean girls that told her she wasn’t skinny enough, good enough or simply that other people mattered more than she did. She will inspire you to STOP worrying what other people think and take your power back!

‘Heidi Anderson is a straight up legend; she just gets it! She works hard, she’s an ideas machine and is a content queen. Heidi is the ultimate hype girl, I know this cause she’s been mine since 2013.’ TANYA HENNESSY, Comedian, TV & Radio Personality

Marshall's Great Captain -...

Kathy Wilson

On May 3, 1943, dozens of planes could be seen flying in and out of Royal Air Force Bovingdon Airfield. Among the aircraft seen that day was a B-24D bomber named Hot Stuff, which carried the Commanding General of US Forces in Europe, Lieutenant General Frank M. Andrews—the officer charged with formulating a plan to invade Europe. Speculation was that General George C. Marshall had called Andrews back to Washington, DC, leading many to believe that Marshall had another promotion in store for Andrews. Tragically, Andrews would never arrive. While attempting to land in Iceland, the bomber crashed into a mountain, with no survivors other than the tail gunner; Andrews's personal papers were also destroyed. 
 
 
 
In Marshall's Great Captain, author Kathy Wilson details Andrews's extraordinary life and career. The first biography dedicated to the namesake of Joint Base Andrews, this book sheds a light on Andrews's crucial role in orchestrating US involvement in WWII, as well as the professional relationship between Andrews and Marshall. Wilson raises Andrews's legacy to its legitimate place within the annals of both air power and WWII history and posits that there is a high probability that Andrews was Marshall's first choice for the office of Supreme Allied Commander. Marshall recounted that Andrews was the only one he had a chance to prepare for such a command.
