But politics has always been about conflict, and in the coverage of politics, information dissemination tends to be organized around conflict as well.” WorldNeedsWellsRealCountryInformationVictoryConflictOrganizationDrawingReal LifeOur CountryAround The WorldOrganizedDistinctionGet BackCooperationDilemmaCoverageDissemination Author:William J.
