- Double-weighted statement
- This 307-page monograph is the only book on the Great Financial Crisis examining the production, content and reception of print and broadcast news. Drawing on research carried out over nearly a decade (2009-2018), it combines interviews with leading journalists alongside content analysis and focus groups with the general public. Five of the chapters formed the basis for articles/chapters published in this REF period but not submitted. Here they are presented in their most authoritative form providing the most complete analysis of factors structuring news coverage of the Great Financial Crisis and how reporting impacted on public knowledge and understanding.

- There are 15 pages in this book (pp 61-76) which uses data which featured in an article called ‘The 'Today' programme and the banking crisis’, submitted to the previous REF exercise.
