Nakba and the US-Israel Imperial Regime
The US-Israeli genocide is best understood as the end game of empire, the culmination of failed Anglo-American and Zionist policies in the Middle East and, indeed, virtually the entire non-Western world. It is the outcome of a US-sponsored apartheid system in Israel, largely carried out by the IDF and other militarist forces in the West Bank, East Jerusalem, Gaza, and Israel itself and funded by American financial assistance and weapons transfers…
Making Enemies
As Herbert Schiller long ago observed, the mainstream (corporate) media ( MSM ) in the US have long been instruments of state power. However, since the nineteenth century, the reading public has relied on the news media as a pillar, albeit flawed, of a liberal democratic society. While the public still regards a “free press” as essential to democracy, it no longer has confidence that the mainstream media deserve that status. Trust levels in the M…

Becoming Digital
What hath the military-industrial-informational complex wrought? Professor Vincent Mosco informs us by discussing, in an accessible style, the structure, institutions, instruments, practices, and ethos of the five big corporations that dominate the global information sphere, the cloud, big data analytics, and Internet of things applications, and showing us where this is all headed. The ending of net neutrality augurs a future in which the public …
The Planned Obsolescence of TV Journalism
On the February 11, 2013, days before the Oscars, Rhythm & Hues—the visual effects (VFX) company that made The Life of Pi (Ang Lee, 2012), nominated for Best Picture and Best Visual Effects—announced Chapter 11 bankruptcy. 1 Ordinarily, the bankruptcy of a VFX house is such a common occurrence that this event would hardly cause a ripple in the wider visual effects community. On this occasion though, in an irony not lost on anyone within the indus…
The Neoliberal Politics of “Smart”
This article investigates how digital technologies in the energy sector are enabling increased value extraction in the cycle of capital accumulation through surveillant processes of everyday energy consumption. We offer critical theory (Gramsci, Foucault) and critical political economy (Marx) as a guide for critical understanding of value creation in ICT through quotidian processes and practices of social reproduction. In this regard, the concept…
Nineteenth-Century Telegraphy
Nineteenth-century telegraphy had a vital integrative role in the intersecting and mutually constituted developments of American industrialization, urbanization, and mediatization. Previous work by Tarr, Finholt, and Goodman11. Tarr, Finholt, and Goodman, The City and the Telegraph. focused on the internal activities of business, fire, and police institutions in American cities. Here, I move beyond their approach in relating telegraphy to broader…
Digital India
One of the great foresights and enduring initiatives of India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru, was the development of technology research centres that would eventually lead to the country
The growth of TV news, the demise of the journalism profession
In response to the dearth of critical literature on the transformation of local news ownership structure and the impacts of technological reorganization of news production on the television profession and local communities, we analyze the consolidation of local news and the paradox of expanded news hours in times of shrinking staffs and less-trusting audiences. Focused on Portland, Oregon, characterized as one of America’s most civically active c…
Systemic Propaganda as Ideology and Productive Exchange
Informed by the works of Marx and his progeny (Lukács, Gramsci, Althusser) as well as more recent marxian scholarship, the purpose of this paper is to explore the role of ideology and propaganda in the production and circulation of commodities and in the informalization of the contemporary workplace, particularly in the context of the promotional economy, politics, and culture of the United States. The heightened functions of media and communicat…

A Review of
Covering Eastern European and Russian elections
The study of American media coverage of foreign affairs is of distinct importance for at least three reasons. As a world superpower, US foreign policy initiatives and the way they are represented in America’s major media outlets reverberate throughout the world via such powerful news organizations as Associated Press, the New York Times, Washington Post, and International Herald Tribune, the dominant television networks and newsweeklies, and CNNI…
The Myths of 'Democracy Assistance
One of the notable shifts in post-Soviet world politics is the almost unimpeded involvement of Western agents, consultants, and public and private institutions in the management of national election processes around the world—including those in the former Soviet allied states. As communist party apparatuses in those countries began to collapse by the late 1980s and in almost bloodless fashion gave way to emerging political forces, the West, espec…
The Global Reproduction of American Politics
The process of economic transnationalization and liberalization that has accelerated in recent years has a corollary in the political sphere. One of the political areas that has been transformed under neoliberalism is the organization and management of election campaigns. Political consultants from the United States and other leading industrialized states have been hired as campaign managers or experts in elections held in Russia, Israel, Britain…

Revolutionary communications in Cuba
One of the changes brought by the 1959 Cuban Revolution (July 26th Movement) against the Batista dictatorship was the reorganization and reconstitution of the country's communication and information infrastructure. Facing an almost immediate siege from the efforts of the Eisenhower and Kennedy governments, the CIA and Cuban exiles to overthrow the new government, the revolution was propelled on the basis of a permanent threat from the United Stat…

Politics and the press
In Intramuros (the “walled city”), the preserved residential area of the former Spanish regime, Manila's working journalists ritually gather nightly at the Philippine National Press Club (NPC) dining room, and over beer and fried delicacies share stories and rumors of the day. Hovering along one wall is the 1955 mural by the late painter Vicente Manansala that moralistically caricatures a venal politician greedily clutching money, while dominatin…
