Title: Scroungers
Description: Explores and analyzes the ways in which the poor are portrayed both in print and online, and how it affects the beliefs of those who consume this media. Morrison also puts these attitudes into a wider context showing how they can lead to a breakdown in social trust and community cohesion and further hurt the very people who need the most help. --From publisher description.
