Television Discourse

Television Discourse is an eccessible, progressive and multi-disciplinary introduction to the dynamic television news environment of our mediated age. Drawing on insights from media, communication and cultural studies, and sociology, Television Discourse emphasizes the importance of both broadcast talk and "televisuality" (information in our intensely visual culture) in shaping that which we know as "news" today. The book outlines approaches and methodologies useful to studying television discourse while also engaging in debates about media and communication studies in the twenty-first century. In a break from traditional approaches to television, it explores how our news is determined more than ever by time and image and the consequences of "media events" on the shaping and reshaping of history. Providing practical guidance on how to use and analyze television as data in essays and dissertations, this is an invaluable introduction for students styding the nature and significance of television news in a 24/7 world.
