This article explores the controversy surrounding the behaviour of the British tabloid press in the 1992 general election, and the effect that their anti-Labour campaign had on the result. The stance of the popular press is placed within the context of its behaviour since 1945 to show that between 1979 and 1992 the popular press was more hostile to Labour than at any time in the post-war period. The reasons for this, along with the wider effects that a hostile press had on Neil Kinnock and the Labour party, are assessed. The article concludes that there were more fundamental reasons for Labour's defeat in 1992, but the tabloid press campaign almost certainly made the difference between a Conservative victory and a hung parliament. |
