Andrew Kennis`s most recent book, Digital-Age Resistance: Journalism, Social Movements and the Media Dependence Model, is a comparative study of several case studies using a novel model of news analysis called the Media Dependence Model, which Kennis himself hypothesized and developed in his doctoral thesis (Kennis, 2011) and has since been refining and updating.
