worthwhile site – lots of good stuff here and here (theory)
Superb set of links to all kinds of media
and cultural studies web sites zap this

Guardian and also its Media page
BBC

Here is a vast set of links to many of the
leading figures in media, communications, information theory, AI and A-Life,
advanced media technologies etc.
Remember, there is no such thing as ‘the
Shannon AND Weaver’ Theory of Communication – only 2 separate
papers published one year apart when Weaver offered a clever gloss (re-interpretation)
for human communication issues, of Shannon’s ideas about the efficient
transmitting of information (coding) in telephone systems:
And here they are…
Claude E Shannon's classic paper: A
Mathematical Theory of Communication
Warren Weaver’s much used 1949 commentary on
Shannon’s work
Here
is a good explanation of how the British government system
work – you need to know this sort of thing as general knowledge.
Useful site listing all of the Government Departments
