| Synopsis: |
This issue explores the cultures of the contemporary media industries, taking a cool look at the current explosion and diversification of new media forms. It focuses on the relations between new media and popular experience, assessing where commercial cultures and new technologies offer something genuinely exciting, and where there is more hype than innovation.The book illustrates the contined importance of public regulation of the media, suggesting the need for more flexible and imaginative controls which break with the inherited patrician model of the BBC, and which create genuinely popular initiatives. Contributors include: Phil Cohen, James Curran and Angela McRobbie. |
