HAVENT YOU HEARD

Descriere

Gossip, Power, and How Politics Really Works. In 'Haven't You Heard...?', Marie Le Conte looks at the role gossip plays in all areas of politics - for the people in positions of power, and the press who have most of the control, and how the internet has changed everything. From policy rows which aren't about policy at all and boozy nights with dramatic consequences, to people spinning their way to the top and media quid pro quos veering into blackmail, she sets out in great and entertaining detail the human side of the people running the country against a backdrop of political mayhem.
