    Book, Manchester University Press, 2008
  • Description

    Drawing on extensive archival research, this book explores what can be termed case studies in popular program culture on 1950’s British television, with a particular focus on the BBC. Histories of 1950s British television have perpetuated the assumption that BBC television in this period was staid, elitist and paternalistic, while the competition from commercial television (ITV) was populist and appealing - capturing the increasingly mass audience for the medium and subsequently forcing the BBC to ‘catch up’.

  • Publication Details

    Book, Praeger Publishers, 2008
  • Description

    With skyrocketing crime rates and the appearance of a frightening trend toward social chaos in the 1970s, books, documentaries, and “fiction” films in the true crime genre tried to make sense of the Charles Manson crimes and the Gary Gilmore execution events. Through the suggestion that certain kinds of killers are “monstrous” or outside the realm of human morality, and through the perpetuation of the “stranger-danger” idea, the true crime aesthetic has both responded to and fostered our culture’s fears. The Rise of True Crime examines the various genres of true crime using the most popular and well-known examples. (automatically summarized from Amazon.com)
