Using a critical discourse analysis, this book addresses the imposition of right-wing minority rule and nullification through the vehicle of mass media. Each chapter explores current manifestations of minority rule in the thematic areas of gender identity and sexuality; race and aggressive colorblindness; democracy and subversion of the popular vote; abortion and the assault on choice; and information nihilism. Examples are presented from social media, representing an important collective case study in the rapidly evolving nature of news coverage on these key issues during the period between the 1/6 insurrection and the first 100 days of the second Trump administration.
