Media Madness by Otto F Wahl
This work seeks to expose the myths about mental illness and the way it is distorted by the American media. The author argues that inaccuracies about mental illness in newspapers, magazines, movies and books make it clear that this is not merely stereotyping, but rather a pervasive ignorance.
Otto F. Wahl is a professor of psychology at George Mason University. He is the author of Media Madness: Public Images of Mental Illness (Rutgers University Press), which received the 1996 Gustavus Myers Award as an Outstanding Book on Human Rights in North America.
