This volume brings critical theory to bear on a familiar feature of our daily lives- the evening news on television- in order to clarify what it means to talk about hegemony. This book's approach makes accesible to a wider audience another way of seeing an otherwise taken-for-granted dimension of daily life and political culture. By empirically and theoretically reading a text taken from the evening news students can inspect, in a language familiar to them, what issues of "ideology" and "legitimation" are about.Goldman, Robert is the author of 'Mapping Hegemony Television News Coverage of Industrial Conflict' with ISBN 9780893916978 and ISBN 0893916978.
