New Book: Cross-Media Promotion

Cross-Media Promotion 
By Jonathan Hardy

Cross-Media Promotion is the first book-length study of a defining feature of
contemporary media, the promotion by media of their allied media interests.
The book explores the range of forms of cross-promotion including synergistic
marketing of mega-brands such as Harry Potter; promotional plugs in news
media; repurposing media content, stars and brands across other media and
outlets; product placement, and the integration of media content and
advertising.
