Selling the Australian Government Politics And Propaganda from Whitlam to Howard

Governments spend millions of taxpayers' dollars monitoring every word their opponents utter, gathering ammunition for party political purposes. They distribute political propaganda across the land, at public expense, via the offices of their own parliamentarians. Yet, despite its damaging impact on the democratic process, these practices have rarely been questioned by the media, and are seldom challenged in parliament.Barns, Greg is the author of 'Selling the Australian Government Politics And Propaganda from Whitlam to Howard', published 2005 under ISBN 9780868408026 and ISBN 0868408026.
