Description of The Martians Have Landed!
Presents more than three dozen studies of media scares from the 17th century to the 21st century, including hoaxes perpetrated via newspapers, radio, television and cyberspace. From the 1835 Batmen-on-the-Moon hoax to more recent bird flu scares and Hurricane Katrina myths, it explores hoaxes that highlight the impact of the media on our lives and its tendency to sensationalize.
