Propaganda Model
The Propaganda Model
, developed by
Edward S. Herman
and
Noam Chomsky
, argues that
mass media in democratic societies
serves the interests of dominant, elite groups by filtering information through five
systematic biases
. These biases include ownership, advertising, sourcing, flak, and anti-communism, which collectively shape
media content
to marginalize
dissenting viewpoints
and promote corporate and
government agendas
.
