Toxic Sludge is Good For You : Lies, Damn Lies and the Public Relations Industry
by Sheldon Rampton, John Stauber
In a series of short but informative chapters, sprinkled with humor and packed with insider information, the authors illustrate how the PR industry works round-the-clock to manipulate and deceive. ... Now a $10 billion enterprise, PR has evolved far beyond press releases and other standard devices into 'crisis management,' the hiring of spies, the suppression of free speech and even the manufacture of 'grass roots' movements. ... In a world suffused with corporate lies and propaganda, the authors show, one cannot trust the 'Workplace Health and Safety Council'--actually a corporate lobby that opposes health and safety regulations--any more than one can safely join 'Californians for Statewide Smoking Restrictions,' a front for Philip Morris. ... If you are among those convinced that at least the spin managers haven't got you fooled, read this book. You will surely think again.
