Description: "Spin - intentional manipulation of the truth - is everywhere. It's in the White House, in the courtrooms, in headlines and advertising slogans. Even couples on dates - not to mention book jackets - are guilty of spin. Now, analyst Bill Press freeze-frames the culture of spin to investigate what exactly spin is, who does it and why, and its impact on American society as a whole."--BOOK JACKET.
