Sussex-based NUJ member Sean Tunney has just had a book published - Labour and the Press 1972-2005.
It tells the story of how the Labour party transformed its relationship with the national press, allowing the emergence of New Labour.
It covers the party's overall development from the days of Harold Wilson, through its flirtation with Daily Mirror tycoon and thief Robert Maxwell to the approach of Tony Blair.
Sean is a lecturer at Roehampton College in London and has worked on the FT and on local newspapers in Crawley. It's published by Sussex Academic Press - call 01524 68765 for a copy. £40 hardback, £15 softback. Sean says it's so far selling better in the US than in the UK.
