She hasproduced a valuable, important, and timely study--essentialreading for all of us."

"Packaging Terrorism is an urgently needed meditation on howjournalism has too often failed to ask the hard questions about the'War on Terror' and become instead a weapon ofpropaganda. Susan Moeller's timely book is a must-read forall concerned journalists and citizens."

"If you need a thoughtful, thorough, and challenging surveyof recent media treatment of terrorism, then this is it. SusanMoeller is a clever and realistic analyst of how journalism treatsthis vital subject. She has both an insider's understandingof the media and the intelligence and research to mount a criticalattack on those who misrepresent the true nature of politicalviolence."

"Susan Moeller has exploded a bomb, splintering the'War on Terror.' This thoroughly researched bookprovides an X-ray image of the US and British media as they havegrappled with reporting the news of terrorism and war. It is astinging rebuke of this largely profit-driven profession and also aprimer for students of journalism on how to cover war and violenceto make us better informed citizens in a democracy."
