In this book, Lisa Parks develops the concept of vertical mediation to explore how audiovisual cultures enact and infer power relations far beyond the screen. Focusing on TV news, airport checkpoints, satellite imagery, and drone media, Parks demonstrates how "coverage" makes vertical space intelligible to global publics in new ways and powerfully reveals what is at stake in controlling it.Television broadcasting of newsTechnological innovationsTelecommunicationSocial aspectsTelevision broadcasting of newsMass media and warArtificial satellites in telecommunicationTelevision broadcasting of newsTechnological innovations.TelecommunicationSocial aspects.Television broadcasting of news.Mass media and war.Artificial satellites in telecommunication.070.1/95Parks Lisa1490693FlBoTFGFlBoTFGBOOK9910796863603321Rethinking media coverage3867034UNINA
