Synopsis

A best-seller in its first edition, this text has become the critical introduction to media studies. Now with seven new chapters and extensive revisions throughout, this Second Edition provides an introduction for students and general readers that is even more current and engaging. Practical and highly accessible, Questioning the Media, Second Edition invites readers to become active participants in understanding the importance of the media today. New chapters enhance the previous collection of original works by distinguished contributors:

Media and identity
Global media influences
Computer-mediated communication
Feminist media theories
Popular music
News coverage of AIDS

Designed as a text with introductions to each section and chapter, this groundbreaking volume offers diverse critical perspectives on media studies, including:

Political economy
Cultural studies
Frankfurt School critical theory
Feminism
Audience ethnography
Cultural dependency

Students can thoroughly examine topics in mass culture, technology, international communication, and much more. Throughout the text and glossary, sophisticated terms and concepts are explained, making this the ideal critical introduction to media studies. Questioning the Media is the introductory text for first-, second-, third-, and fourth-year undergraduates, and is also invaluable for graduate students, professionals, and general readers as a critical introduction to media studies.
