But with Facebook and Twitter embroiled in controversy over privacy issues, ongoing revelations about foreign interference through hacking and social media trolls, and coverage of controversial viral videos monopolizing the attention of the press, is the Internet a benign public arena, let alone one for the public good? Potter explains how we got here by situating today's online politics in a much longer history of new media technologies repurposed for political purposes, including independent newsletters, talk radio, direct mail, and cable television. -- adapted from publisher info   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 302.231 Po Checked In Add Copy to MyList
