Based on an empirical study of the day-to-day use of television by working people, it develops a unique theoretical approach integrating cultural sociology, post modernism and the literature of media effects to explore the way in which people give meaning to their viewing practices. While recognising the power of television, it also emphasises the importance of the social and political factors which affect the lives of individual viewers, showing how the interaction between the two can result in a disengagement with corporately produced culture at the same time as an appropriation of the images themselves into people's lives. 410 0$aCambridge cultural social studies. 606 $aTelevision broadcasting$xSocial aspects$zUnited States 606 $aTelevision viewers$zUnited States 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting$xSocial aspects 615 0$aTelevision viewers 676 $a302.23/45/0973 700 $aLembo$b Ron$01531327 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910780090503321 996 $aThinking through television$93776901 997 $aUNINA
