God's Angry Men
The Political Legacy of the John Birch Society Carmen Celestini God's Angry Men examines a historical timeline from the 1930s through the early 1980s of the communications and interactions between corporations, religious leaders, and wealthy individuals, wherein both individuals and societal forces strategically planned to politically mobilize a percentage of conservative Christians in support of a form of Christian nationalism and libertarianism. The John Birch Society (JBS) well known for its conspiracy theories is often dismissed for its political impact in the United States. Far from just an organization that utilized fear-based conspiracies, the JBS was a political movement that stemmed from the political aspirations of industry leaders, wanting to ensure a far-right, Christian, free-enterprise supporting UK April 2026 • US April 2026 256 Pages PB 9798216452485 • £28.99 / $39.95 HB 9781666973587 • £90.00 / $120.00 ePDF 9798216255680 • £81.00 / $108.00 ePub 9781978770652 • £81.00 / $108.00 Bloomsbury Academic

Celestini explores the eternal battle for the Christian foundations of the nation via culture war issues and the political legacy of the JBS in the 21st century. Celestini focuses on PR campaigns and other forms of media and propaganda from groups like the John Birch Society and the National Association of Manufacturers (NAM) to demonstrate how this historic political and religious communication can be tied to aggressive alt-right groups, the New Christian Right, and the contemporary ‘culture wars.'

At Home with Political Portraits
Photographs of the Domestic Display of US Presidents Jennifer Wingate, St. Francis College, USA At Home with Political Portraits focuses on photographs of the domestic display of three U.S. presidential icons: Franklin Delano Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy, and Barack Obama to examine everyday expressions of national pride and belonging as well as tensions these displays signal about the state of democracy. Even though keeping political portraits in the home has traditionally been associated with authoritarian regimes, the United States has a long history with the practice, and Wingate analyzes how photos of three 20th- and 21-century U.S presidential icons plays into this history. With radio, television, and social media, respectively, Roosevelt, Kennedy, and Obama entered the intimate spaces of people’s daily lives in new and unprecedented ways.

But the photographers and artists who draw our attention to these expressions of pride and belonging, such as Jack Delano, Gordon Parks, Louis Carlos Bernal, Bruce Davidson, Jordan Casteel, and An Rong Xu, also reveal the tensions they signal. Wingate argues how both the artists and their subjects strive to make meaning from national symbols and to locate one’s place within the imagined community of nationhood. In doing so, they invite reflection on U.S. citizens’ hopes and anxieties about the state of the nation’s democracy.

Public Relations in Times of Dissensus
Narratives, Artifacts, and the Challenges of Meaning Edited by Saima Kazmi, Joshua Foust & Burton St. John III Public relations are entering an era marked by increasing societal dissensus, where shared narratives are breaking down and contentious communication defines the public sphere. This edited volume argues that public relations must move beyond consensus-seeking models to engage with dissent as a critical feature of modern communication. The traditional public relations approaches that pursue collective agreement are increasingly out of step with the contemporary dynamics shaped by political polarization, digital framing, and postmodern challenges to metanarratives.

Various case studies and critical analyses including non-profit organizations, government crisis communication, corporate social advocacy, global diplomacy, and historical movements provide interdisciplinary insights into how public relations can strategically navigate dissents.

Rhetoric, Intersectionality, and Black Women in Pittsburgh Living Enough for the City Tahirah J. Walker In this book, Tahirah J. Walker provides an analysis of how Black women in Pittsburgh navigate the public sphere through an examination of the ways that intersecting identities shape discourse, silence, and reclamation. The author draws from historical events, personal narratives, and community case studies to take a deep look at the intersectional marginalization, resistance and transformation journeys of Black women in a city deemed most unlivable for them. Walker amplifies unique presentations of language, silence and reclamation as they are negotiated via race, gender, and class.

Discourses at Play
A Rhetorical Exploration of Historical Crises Using the Language of Games Todd S. Frobish Todd Frobish explores a diverse set of historical crises through the lens of "rhetorical gameplay", an approach that serves as the intersection between rhetorical theory and game studies. The field of rhetorical studies has yet to embrace the subject of gaming and play. While previous methods, such as dramatism, narrative analysis, fantasy theme, and more, are still powerful and useful as critical methods, Frobish argues that rhetorical events can be analyzed as games of persuasion, choice, and play. Testing this model through a textual examination of four large-scale rhetorical events (The Salem Witch Trials, the Covid Pandemic, Fall of the Berlin Wall, and UK February 2026 • US February 2026 216 Pages • 13 b/w illustrations PB 9798216391661 • £28.99 / $39.95 HB 9781666970012 • £80.00 / $110.00 ePDF 9798216255390 • £72.00 / $99.00 ePub 9781978771017 • £72.00 / $99.00 Bloomsbury Academic

Food Justice Rhetorics and Literacies Eileen E. Schell Presents an argument for a food justice-oriented rhetoric and literacy that shifts the emphasis in the local food movement from individualized conscious eater literacies to addressing the broader social, political, and cultural implications, histories, and power relations embedded in the food system. Food Justice Rhetorics and Literacies provides a critical examination of the dominant rhetorical tropes and arguments of local food discourse and their exclusions.

Beyond Consensus
How Everyday Citizens Advocate for Local Environmental Issues Kelly Scarff By better understanding the "genre" of environmental public hearings, one can challenge ideas of effectiveness and consensus so that citizens can learn to advocate more effectively for their concerns about environmental issues. This book addresses how public hearing genre conventions are established and how those conventions inform and often govern tensions that arise in public discourse about a contested environmental project. The two questions driving the author's inquiry are: one, how do citizens and institutions interpret, prepare for, respond to, and engage with the public hearing genre? And two, what role and effect do public hearings have on both the community and the contested project’s overall process?

The authors argue those wishing to promote trans rights or other inclusive efforts should leave fairness as a key value behind, instead favoring access, opportunity, and justice.

From Surviving to Metaviving
A New Rhetorical Formation in Metastatic Breast Cancer Patient Discourse Julie Mengert As treatments have advanced, metastatic breast cancer has become a disease that some women can live with for years, which has changed the language that women use to discuss living with this form of breast cancer as discussed in this book. Using the framework of Celeste Condit’s rhetorical formations, which includes uses of metaphors, topics, and values, among other rhetorical features, the author examines how language has shifted from one of war and survivor rhetoric to that of metavivor rhetoric, which includes metaphors of water and prison, among others. Another hallmark of this emerging rhetorical formation is existing in a state of liminality where the cancer neither progresses nor retreats, leading to women experiencing time differently. By examining how women discuss living with cancer in an online breast cancer support group, Bloomsbury Studies in Health Communication UK September 2025 • US September 2025 136 Pages PB 9781666973129 • £17.99 / $39.95 HB 9781666973105 • £67.5 / $100.00 ePDF 9798216201380 • £60.75 / $90.00 ePub 9781978770942 • £60.75 / $90.00 Bloomsbury Academic
the author analyzes the language shifts taking place and argues that women have moved from the dominant war/survivor rhetorical formation to one grounded in metavivor rhetoric. Within this evolution comes an understanding of what it means to live with a chronic, yet ultimately, terminal, illness and an acknowledgment of the impact that their lives’ perceived time has on these language choices.

Postpartum Depression and the Communicative Construction of Maternal Identity Motherhood in Tension Kelly M. Weikle In this book, Kelly M. Weikle contends that foregrounding lived experiences and applying identity as a lens to the study of postpartum depression provides a uniquely powerful perspective through which we can better understand both the condition and how to effectively support mothers during the postpartum period. Using the Communication Theory of Identity as a sensitizing framework, Weikle incorporates interviews with women who have experienced postpartum depression and autoethnographic insights from her own experience to demonstrate how expectations from others, close personal relationships, and dominant ideologies of “good” and “bad” motherhood can coalesce with mental health to shape each mother’s postpartum experience on an individual level.

challenges are not strictly medical and are thus more easily overlooked, they can manifest through devastating health crises including extreme anxiety and obsessions, intrusive thoughts of escape, bouts of insomnia, and intense feelings of overwhelm and maternal failure. Ultimately, Weikle’s analysis contributes to scholarship across fields and disciplines through its investigation into how and why loss of control and loss of self can manifest—and the significance of those manifestations—in the postpartum context. This work thus sets a foundation and an impetus for researchers and practitioners to take these factors into consideration as they work to develop more impactful support for postpartum mothers.

Media Literacy and Mental Health Care Access
The Communication that Connects Those in Need and the Care They Need Jesse Scaccia In this book, Jesse Scaccia argues that while courses that teach students how news, media, and social media might cause or worsen mental health issues are a promising start, media literacy education also needs to teach young adults how to reach mental health care when they need it. Drawing from both scholarly research and personal experience, Scaccia explores the critical role of media literacy in helping young adults navigate the often-confusing path to mental health care, demonstrating that media is not just a potential cause of mental health challenges—it is also a crucial part of the solution.

The book also incorporates empirical data and theoretical frameworks from health communication to reveal barriers to care like stigma, functional impairment, and misinformation. Ultimately, this book calls on educators, legislators, and health professionals to treat media literacy as a public health imperative that must equip young adults with the skills to both understand the media around them and use it to reach the help they need.

In Communication Myths: What We Know That Isn't So and What We Need to Know, J.

Free Speech in the American Workplace
From the Dawn of Workers' Rights to the Rise of Social Media Randy Bobbitt This book examines the legal and ethical issues that can result when employees express opinions that conflict with those of their employer. It covers seven areas of employment - corporate; government (local, state, and federal); military; law enforcement; K-12 education; college professors and administrators; and sports - to look at case precedent and interrogate how technology has complicated this area of the law and employee-employer relations. Randy Bobbitt argues that, while free speech in the workplace has always been considered controversial, the phenomena of social media has coincided with a sharp increase in cases over the past decade, as disgruntled employees take to online forums to criticize their employers or express controversial opinions. By exploring these cases in both the private and public sectors, Bobbitt also highlights the difference in legal obligation to the protection of free speech between the two and demonstrates how employers in both UK July 2025 • US July 2025 344 Pages PB 9781666951103 • £22.99 / $39.95 HB 9781666951080 • £95.00 / $130.00 ePDF 9798765152157 • £85.50 / $117.00 ePub 9781666951097 • £85.50 / $117.00 Bloomsbury Academic

Chee Digital Game Culture in Korea: The Social at Play is a critical ethnographic investigation of media discourses surrounding online game addiction and the sociocultural roles fulfilled by games in everyday life.

Free Speech and Neoliberalism Art, Culture, Education
Asbjørn Skarsvåg Grønstad In this book, Asbjørn Skarsvåg Grønstad challenges us to reconceptualize the notion of free speech. Focusing on the domains of cultural production, aesthetics, and education, Grønstad contends that neoliberalism currently poses the greatest threat to our freedom of expression. Crucially, the book argues that freedom of speech should no longer be considered merely as parrhesia–understood as the license to offend–but also as isegoria, the equal right to speak. The latter denotes the original meaning of free speech, Grønstad posits, and should be restored as the conceptual ambit of the term, despite being largely overlooked after Greek Antiquity.

Grønstad examines a variety of texts across formats including Fahrenheit 451, Alphaville (1965), Severance, the performance art of Jingyi Wang, and the films of Yorgos Lanthimos to conduct a multi-faceted engagement with cultural works and discourses spanning both genre and historical period that grapple with issues of free speech, censorship, and neoliberal politics. Ultimately, these analyses highlight how art and aesthetics represent a particular case of isegoria, and more broadly, how neoliberal rationality operates to delimit the space of the sayable and the expressible.

Due to the fluctuating evolution of EU-wide and national regulatory approaches to the digital sphere and the differences in each approach, it is crucial to examine the current state of that regulation on both levels to better understand each approach and its consequences.

Using clear definitions and examples of misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation, Pantic demonstrates how audiences can strengthen their ability to identify relevant sources and differentiate between facts, opinions, and false information, ultimately learning to both recognize and resist instances of unreliable content through critical thinking and informed media consumption.

Increased participation in storytelling, she contends, can encourage greater public engagement and accountability in a digitized media ecosystem.

Crosby utilizes original data and the frameworks of critical discourse analysis, systemic functional linguistics, and the protest paradigm to perform critical analysis of mainstream news reporting of the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) protests in 2016.
