In this book, John Fiske looks at television's role as an agent of popular culture, and goes on to consider the relationship between this cultural dimension and television's status as a commodity of the cultural industries that are deeply inscribed with capitalism. He makes use of detailed textual analysis and audience studies to show how television is absorbed into social experience, and thus made into popular culture. Audiences, Fiske argues, are productive, discriminating, and televisually literate.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eTelevision Culture\u003c\/em\u003e provides a comprehensive introduction for students to an integral topic on all communication and media studies courses. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eJohn Fiske\u003c\/strong\u003e is Professor Emeritus in the Department of Communication Arts at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 424\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.87 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 30, 2010\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52710166757683,"sku":"9780415596473","price":92.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/VVQ5a1pGbTBNNVM2RHJZNmYyazVnQT09_56861b18-bf52-42bd-b27b-0e1213234412.webp?v=1763485222","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/television-culture-paperback-1","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
