Media and Politics in Africa

So much has been said, written and read about media and politics in Africa, yet very little has been done to study the outlook for them. Considering media to be an integral part of the evolution of politics in Africa, this chapter will on one hand scrutinize both elites’ and masses’ perception of Africa’s political landscape, including how it is presented by the media, and on the other hand discuss political mediascapes. By historical and critical analysis and reflective argument, this chapter attempts an exposition of media and politics, and seeks a foregrounding for media and politics in order to assist with Africa’s emerging realities
