Este es un audiolibro de investigación al que los autores han dedicado cerca de dos años. El resultado es este trabajo polémico compuesto por las biografías de once hombres y una mujer que controlan el 70 por 100 de la información mundial. Los autores nos cuentan como Silvio Berlusconi paso de vender aspiradoras a construir su imperio televisivo; esta es la primera biografía autorizada de Jesús de Polanco, así como los comienzos de El País, diario que en 1996 celebro sus veinte años de existencia.

Zwanzig Minuten hat Christian Sievers in einer "heute"-Sendung, um über das aktuelle Weltgeschehen zu berichten - und muss dabei erklären, zusammenfassen, weglassen. In diesem Hörbuch erzählt er die Geschichten hinter der Nachricht. Gerade in den Krisengebieten dieser Welt stößt er auf Unerwartetes, Überraschendes, Verwirrendes: Humor neben Hass, Mut in der Katastrophe, Propaganda mit Augenzwinkern und Lügner, die den Wert der Wahrheit predigen. Eine verunsicherte Medienwelt steht vor der Herausforderung, all diesen Facetten der Story gerecht zu werden.

BILD ist das mächtigste Medium des Landes - auch in Zeiten des Internets. Sie bestimmt, worüber Deutschland spricht. Welchen Anteil hat die Redaktion am Aufstieg der Populisten? Wie geht sie mit Minderheiten um? Und auf welche Weise manipuliert sie die Öffentlichkeit? 44 Jahre nach Günter Wallraffs "Aufmacher" gibt nun ein Buch neue, erschreckende Einblicke in die Machenschaften der BILD-Medien. Die Journalisten Mats Schönauer und Moritz Tschermak beobachten und analysieren seit einem Jahrzehnt, wie BILD arbeitet.

"Ich war nur kurz abgelenkt." Viele Menschen halten sich für gute und empathische Zuhörer. Das ist ein Trugschluss - das Gegenteil ist der Fall. Wir sind viel zu sehr mit uns selbst beschäftigt, planen bereits im Voraus die nächsten Argumente, meinen, im Vorfeld zu wissen, was der Andere sagen will. Wir sind abgelenkt durch ständige Erreichbarkeit auf allen Kanälen, die unterschiedlich bedient werden wollen, durch Multitasking und den beschleunigten Puls der ganzen Gesellschaft. Die vermeintlich simple und passive Tätigkeit des Zuhörens haben wir verlernt.

Der Verschwörungskult um QAnon fabuliert von einer Elite, die das Blut gefolterter Kinder trinke. Selbsternannte Skeptiker wettern gegen vermeintliche Impfkartelle. Andere wähnen sich mitten in Deutschland in einer versteckten Diktatur. Auch wenn sie in immer neuer Gestalt daherkommen, Verschwörungstheorien durchziehen die Geschichte. Dabei verlaufen sie stets nach demselben Muster - das kaum jemand so treffend erkannt und brillant beschrieben hat wie Umberto Eco.

Una serie TV può cambiare la percezione di intere nazioni su tematiche sociali, scientifiche, politiche, relazionali, dando voce a persone che nella nostra società sono ancora invisibili, a cui non viene mai data la parola. Il merito di Marina Pierri è la capacità di mettere insieme mondi che fanno fatica a parlarsi: quello del femminismo intersezionale e quello della psicologia del profondo. In "Eroine", Marina Pierri prende il testimone da una vasta letteratura filosofica, cinematografica e psicologica, e compie un'operazione ancora inedita.

Walter Veltroni denuncia la debolezza della politica di fronte al ricatto dell'opinione pubblica, il cedimento dell'etica e del pudore sotto i colpi della società delle immagini e della comunicazione totale, riportandoci con la memoria al giorno in cui il nostro sguardo perse l'innocenza. L'11 giugno del 1981, un grido disperato paralizza l'Italia davanti ai teleschermi. Alfredino Rampi, sei anni, è precipitato in un pozzo e sta chiamando disperatamente sua madre. Gli italiani ascoltano agghiacciati il suo lamento, mentre iniziano i tentativi di salvataggio.

In the 21st century, humanity is reaching new heights of scientific understanding - and at the same time appears to be losing its mind. How can a species that developed vaccines for COVID-19 in less than a year produce so much fake news, medical quackery, and conspiracy theorizing? Pinker rejects the cynical cliché that humans are an irrational species - cavemen out of time saddled with biases, fallacies, and illusions.

This is the real story of QAnon - what it is, what it means and where it goes. And be warned - none of it is pretty. On 5th October 2017, President Trump made a cryptic off-the-cuff remark in the State Dining Room. He called this gathering of top-ranking military officials 'the calm before the storm' and refused to elaborate as journalist and politicos inquired further. But on the online message boards of 4chan, elaboration began all on its own.

Where did the coronavirus outbreak originate, and was the pandemic predicted? Did aliens help to build the Sphinx and the Great Pyramid of Giza, and what were they trying to tell us? Is the food industry colluding to make us addicted to sugar? Prepare yourself for some startling revelations on these topics and many more in this updated and expanded compendium of the world’s scariest and strangest conspiracy theories.

This audiobook is about the American moon landings - and about the doubts expressed ever since concerning the reality of these landings. Were the images of men on the moon really just a huge and cleverly executed hoax? Eversberg explains the best-known claims and conspiracy theories

From novels and short stories to television and film, popular media has made a cottage industry of predicting that the end of the world will be caused by particle accelerators. Rather than allay such fears, public pronouncements by particle scientists themselves often unwittingly fan the flames of hysteria. This audiobook surveys media depictions of particle accelerator physics and the perceived dangers these experiments pose.

The author of the acclaimed Advice for Future Corpses (and Those Who Love Them) brings “her singular sensibility, her genius for language, her love of our deeply imperfect world” (Karen Karbo, author of In Praise of Difficult Women) to this insightful exploration of reality TV and the shifting definitions of truth in America.

As a deafblind woman with partial vision in one eye and bilateral hearing aids, Elsa Sjunneson lives at the crossroads of blindness and sight, hearing and deafness—much to the confusion of the world around her. And she knows how wrong our one-size-fits-all definitions of disability can be. Part memoir, part cultural criticism, part history of the deafblind experience, Being Seen explores how our cultural concept of disability is more myth than fact, and the damage it does to us all.

Alex Marlow was just a 21-year-old UC Berkeley student when renowned media mogul Andrew Breitbart hired him as his first employee. Breitbart began mentoring Marlow on how to fight the culture war one headline at a time and to remain resilient in the face of personal attacks. Now, in this eye-opening and timely book, Marlow explains how the establishment press destroyed its own credibility with a relentless stream of “fake news” designed to smear Donald Trump and his supporters while advancing a leftist agenda.

Nearly 20 years ago, on 11 September 2001, four passenger aircraft were hijacked and flown into the World Trade Center in New York, the Pentagon near Washington and a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were killed. The narrative in the weeks and months that followed seemed straightforward: the attacks had been masterminded by al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden, an embittered terrorist with an abiding hatred of the West. But, as the 20-year anniversary approaches, that neat explanation still fails to answer some important questions surrounding that fateful day.

Gorgeous War argues that the Nazis used the swastika as part of a visually sophisticated propaganda program that was not only modernist, but also the forerunner of contemporary brand identity. When the United States military tried to answer Nazi displays of graphic power, it failed. In the end the best graphic response to the Nazis was produced by the Walt Disney Company.

In an era of increasing social isolation, platforms like Facebook and Twitter are among the most important tools we have to understand each other. We use social media as a mirror to decipher our place in society, but, as Chris Bail explains, it functions more like a prism that distorts our identities, empowers status-seeking extremists, and renders moderates all but invisible.

If there had been no cover-up of Robert Kennedy's complicity in the murder of Marilyn Monroe in 1962 and he had been prosecuted based on compelling evidence at the time, the assassination of JFK by Bobby's enemies would not have happened - changing the course of history and preventing the murder of media icon Dorothy Kilgallen.

Journalist, doctor, professor, and CDC-trained disease detective Seema Yasmin, driven by a need to set the record straight, dissects some of the most widely circulating medical myths and pseudoscience.
