Popis: | In the last couple of decades various scholars have signaled the occurrence and development of important processes in political communication. If some have broadly coined these transformations as “Americanization” (Negrine & Papathanassopoulos, 1996; Scammel, 1998), “professionalization” (Blumler & Kavanaugh, 1999; Strömbäck, 2008; Stamper & Brants, 2011), “tabloidization” (Barnett, 1998; Connell, 1998; Klein, 1996) or “infotainment”, (Street, 2000; 2001), others have associated them with terms such as “video malaise” (Robinson, 1976) or “spectatorship democracy” (De Beus, 2011). According to these views, political journalism nowadays has stepped into a new era, in which the coverage of political events and television programming itself are heading towards an entertainment logic. Rosa Van Santen’s work addresses all of these issues and represents a very valuable contribution to assessing these hypotheses. |
