520 1 $a"This book explores how the Russian media, in
particular television, have shaped Russian politics in the
post-Soviet era. It examines why the Russian mass media
failed so spectacularly to develop as a pillar of civil
society and aid to democratization, instead evolving into a
mouthpiece for special interests. The book employs a range
of data, including public-opinion surveys, content analysis
of television news, focus groups, and in-depth interviews,
to analyze the Russian elections in the period since
1993."--BOOK JACKET.
