Opis

Understanding Television offers an introduction to some of the issues of television broadcasting and its main genres. It examines a number of programme categories, such as news, drama-documentary, sit-com, soap opera, sport and quizzes, and discusses aspects of the history of the organisation of television, its audiences and its future; it also looks at some key conceptual debates about hegemony in contemporary television

Recenzje

`All in all, this is a first rate piece of work which admirably accomplishes the main purpose of the Studies in Culture and Communication series as a whole - namely, bridging the gap between the huge body of research available to the more advanced student and what the newcomer needs to get started.' - Media Bulletin
