Using real-world case studies from across the Global South, this book shows how partisanship has been an important tool in journalism. The puroported "objectivity" of commercial media often whitewashes bias and outright fabrications - such as the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq - and misrepresents them as untemered facts. In contrast, the explicitly partisan journalism practiced by the independent media outlets studied in this book expresses a philosophy of democratic participation, social justice, and advocacy. This text provides chapter examples of partisan journalism by Bolivian miners, Nicaraguan media workers, Venezuelan community media, Pan-African indigenous journalism, and Radio Free Palestine.
