Public Broadcasting and the Public Interest (Media, Communication, and Culture in America)
Lend me this item!
As federal funding for public broadcasting wanes and support from corporations and an elite group of viewers and listeners rises, public broadcasting's role as vox populi has come under threat. With contributions from key scholars from a wide variety of disciplines, this volume examines the crisis facing public broadcasting today by analyzing the institution's development, its present-day operations, and its prospects for the future. Covering everything from globalization and the rise of the Internet to key issues such as race and class to specific subjects such as advertising, public access, and grassroots radio, "Public Broadcasting and the Public Interest" provides a fresh and original look at a vital component of our mass media.
