Summary:

Incisive analyses of mass media – including such forms as talk shows, MTV, the internet, soap operas, television sitcoms, dramatic series, pornography, and advertising—enable this provocative new edition of Gender, Race and Class in Media to engage students in critical mass media scholarship. Issues of power related to gender, race, and class are integrated into a wide range of articles examining the economic and cultural implications of mass media as institutions, including the political economy of media production, textual analysis, and media consumption.

Ten new, original essays are included in this text, along with compelling previously published articles and book chapters by both established media scholars and new voices in the field. Together with new section introductions by Gail Dines and Jean Humez, the readings provide a solid yet accessible critical introduction to mass media studies.

Features:

  • Authority. Original essays and important reprinted articles from renowned scholars comprise this comprehensive and diverse volume
  • Accessibility. Work in cultural studies and queer theory is made accessible to undergraduate students
  • Activist Philosophy. Extensive bibliography and media resources encourage conscientious activism.
  • Integrated analysis. Race is examined throughout the text rather than treated in a separate chapter.

New to the Second Edition:

  • Expanded coverage of "queer" representations in mass media
  • New section introductions provide readers with a guide for each section
  • New section on the violence debates and a new section on the Internet
  • Two sections devoted to consumerism, marketing, and advertising

Recommended for courses in mass media, feminist theory, race, class, and gender, and social theory in the Sociology, Communication, and Women’s Studies disciplines. Also recommended as a general reference title for scholars and anyone interested in the representation of race, class, and gender in the media.

Wow... are we not spellchecking or editing books anymore??
Customer Rating:  Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3 Score = 3

First, let me say that the premise of each article was great for a 400- or 500-level college course and prompted many heated discussions.

But, along the lines of the other reviewer... how are we to take it seriously when we come across dozens of grammatical errors, missing words (the most prevalent error) and punctuation disasters? It read as though the articles were submitted, read by a third-grader and then stuffed hurriedly into the book for publication. A quick read by the "editors" would have found the vast majority of errors.

This is not something isolated, for 3 out of the 4 textbooks I have been assigned this summer session have dozens (yes, "dozens") of grammatical, typographical and punctuation disasters -- books well into their 2nd, 4th and 7th editions. No wonder kids graduating college habitually spell "too" as "to."

Fix the errors before you print the third edition!

Fair information, edited by a twit.
Customer Rating:  Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2 Score = 2

I could not finish reading the book, because I could not take the authors seriously. The many misspellings and mechanical errors were far to distracting. This text is a worthy example of how NOT to write a book.

Excellent resourse for post-modern media theory.
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

As the media becomes one of the most dominant means by which we frame our social reality, it becomes crucial for each of us to understand how media can become a mean to someone's own end. An excellent treatment of hegemony and dominant/ prefered readings. This should be a required text in all communication/ social science programs. But it ain't bad readin' for anyone else who consumes media either, namely you!

Media, stereotypes, white ideologies, marginalization.
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5

An excellent reader explaining the media's role in perpetrating common stereotypes of historically marginalized people. Includes analysis of advertising, sexual representation, TV and music. An excellent textbook for cultural studies.

best text reader ever for my communication major
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4

broad and complete view point on the issues that face college critics in media fields. Most comprehensive text I have been required to buy with my major. Would highly recommend to other prof.s
