| Sumario: | "Bono. Angelina Jolie. Ben Affleck. George Clooney. All of these celebrities, and many others in this century and the last, have endorsed politicians and policies. In Celebrity Power, Mark Harvey takes a close look at the question of what roles celebrities play in politics, focusing primarily on issue-based advocacy to determine if they make a difference and, if so, why. He concludes that celebrities do, in fact, often influence public opinion and that their power is based on their ability to draw attention to specific issues and to persuade people to agree with them or, at the least, to think about issues."-- |
