Incisive analyses of mass media - including such forms as talk shows, MTV, the Internet, soap operas, television sitcoms, dramatic series, pornography, and advertising - enable this provocative new edition of Gender, Race and Class in Media to engage students in critical mass media scholarship. Issues of power related to gender, race, and class are integrated into a wide range of articles examining the economic and cultural implications of mass media as institutions, including the political economy of media production, textual analysis, and media consumption. Throughout, Gender, Race and Class in Media examines the mass media as economic and cultural institutions that shape our social identities, especially in regard to gender, race, and class. A comprehensive introductory section outlines the book's integrated approach to media studies, which incorporates three distinct but related areas of investigation: the political economy of production, textual analysis, and audience response. All new and classic readings in this Fourth Edition have been edited for maximum accessibility. Together with new section introductions by Dines and Humez, the readings provide a comprehensive critical introduction to media studies. "I really think students are impressed with the scope of the book, with the many new ideas and ways of thinking that are evident. This class is fun to teach because so often students tell me that it really changed the way they think about the world and their own understanding of it. This book plays a big part in that." -- Robert Rabe "Excellent, diverse articles that showcase intersecting identities as well as diversity in media. Truly excellent choice of top scholars in the field as well as lesser known people I want to pursue more. I always enjoy reading these pieces and find them just the right length for students as well.Great representation of feminist, critical race, and critical theory scholars rather than merely social science scholars (as most other texts have)." -- Breanne Fahs "I find this a very strong reader for undergraduate students who are new to media studies and visual stereotyping and representations. There is a wealth of engaging and relevant scholarly research that directly relates to the experiences of students with mass media cultural products." -- Dr. Jennifer Brayton
