Hollywood and Broadcasting: FROM RADIO TO CABLE (Illinois Studies Communication)

By Michele Hilmes

Book Overview

"Michele Hilmes has produced
an excellent introduction to a most important subject. This is an invaluable
work for both scholars and students that places film, radio, and television
within the context of the national culture experience."

of broadcasting to move beyond a political economy of the media. . . . Her work
should serve as a model for future histories of broadcasting."

find this work a critical addition to their bookshelves."

history literature."
