Book Synopsis Creatures of Politics by : Michael Lempert
Book excerpt: This book explores political communication in American presidential politics, focusing on what political insiders call "message." The authors argue that message is not just the individual's positions on the issues but the craft used to fashion the creature the public sees as the candidate. They examine some of the revelatory moments in debates, political ads, interviews, speeches, and talk shows to explain how these political creations come to have a life of their own.
