The Freedom to Televise
This essay introduces seven original papers that revisit and reflect on core issues in content regulation. We intend this special issue to build upon the groundwork laid by the strong body of work on content regulation in North American broadcasting and to foreground historical television research at a time when scholarship is trending away from it. The wide net we cast for this issue yielded a slate of case studies from the mid- to late-twentiet…
Bury Him by Radio
Early radio publications located radio funerals (or radio-assisted funerals) somewhere between vulgar displays and quirky, if touching, tributes. By the time of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s funeral broadcast in 1945, network radio had been in full swing for almost 20 years, and the idea of a radio funeral was less of a novelty. Situated in between the vulgar displays and the more elaborate production for Roosevelt were the various broadcasts honoring …
Mexicans in Your Town
Podcasting, the intimate self, and the public sphere
Podcasts often take the form of traditional public affairs and public service media in a hyper-competitive, neoliberalized space that prizes above all the attention given by individualized listeners to specific creators willing to put some version of their intimate selves on display. This dynamic is present in all forms of commercial media, but it is put in particularly sharp relief in the world of contemporary podcasting. This introductory essay…
Narcocorridos and newbie drug dealers
As a Spanish-language broadcast programme based on a sympathetic Mexican character who also happens to be a drug kingpin, La Reina del Sur negotiates the perilous terrain of the European drug trade and an omnipresent hostility directed at Mexicans. As cable programmes with the industrial freedom to venture into spaces in between prosocial and antisocial, Weeds and Breaking Bad attempt to incorporate a more nuanced and culturally informed characte…
Amc
AMC offers an intriguing case study in the evolution of scripted series on cable television. At its inception, the network boasted one of the most stable and coherent brands on cable, and it now harbors one of the least. In spite of this shift, it has cultivated successful and noteworthy dramatic series. This article explores AMC’s contribution to the twenty-first-century television canon by examining its financial constraints, industrial misfort…
Pills Gone Wild
In 1997, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) significantly altered the landscape of commercial media. Because of a clarification of rules regarding advertising, various media would now be able to exploit the vast market potential of pharmaceuticals (or pharmaceutical companies would now be able to exploit the vast marketplace of commercial media). Since 1997, cutting-edge medications have shared the stage with beer, cars, and fast food. The pr…
The Family Racket
This paper examines HBO's The Sopranos in the context of several industrial factors. I begin with the series'generic inscription. As a gangster program, The Sopranos comes to us in the form of a pedigreed pre-sold product, a television text of esteemed cinematic lineage. This leads to the examination of branding. In order to corral The Sopranos into the slogan, “It's Not TV, It's HBO,” HBO seeks to differentiate its product from lowest common den…
