Consuming Environments: Television and Commercial Culture (Communications, Media and Culture Series)
Editorial Reviews
Robert W. McChesney, University of Wisconsin-Madison
"Consuming Environments is an excellent introduction to the issue of commercial broadcasting, the peculiar culture it generates, and the political and environmental problems to which it contributes."
Jackie Byars, Wayne State University
"Budd, Craig, and Steinman reach across the conceptual and methodological gulf between 'cultural studies' and 'political economy' to address the impact of commercialized television on our cultural and physical environments, highlighting the interconnectedness of the ostensibly discrete categories of culture, nature, and economics... But they do not stop there-they foreground the social movements seeking to engage and ameliorate the influence of corporate commercialism. Read this book. Ask your friends to read this book. It's important."
