Recenzje

"Despite its pervasiveness in our mediated lives, 'television' as a digital entity is a fraught term. In Television 2.0, Rhiannon Bury unites television studies, audience research, fan studies, and new media analysis to uncover new and exciting ways to understand that-which-used-to-be-a-box. Pushing past common assumptions about the death of television, Bury re-engages television scholarship through fan interviews, qualitative and quantitative methods, historical methods, and empirical research. In Television 2.0, Bury rereads today's television as a reassemblage of content, fandom, and participation-a social technology in the digital age. A must-read!" Paul Booth, author of Digital Fandom 2.0, Playing Fans and Time on TV
