Description

From universities to internet blogs, from Fox News to NPR, several reports suggest that the Bush Administration may have fabricated critical information that has become common — although perhaps inaccurate — knowledge of current events for Americans and thus gained for George W. Bush another four years in the White House. My study shows how consistent reminders of terrorism produced by the Bush Administration and then broadcast through the media, coupled with a lack of unbiased and accurate news coverage, may have convinced the nation to re-elect President Bush in 2004.
