Television Talk Shows: Discourse, Performance, Spectacle (Routledge Communication Series)

Television Talk Shows: Discourse, Performance, Spectacle (Routledge Communication Series)

by Andrew Tolson (Editor)

Synopsis

This study provides a deconstruction of the actual "talk" of television talk shows, and seeks to demonstrate how this "talk" is a dramatic performance: discursive dynamics fed by the host of the show with certain formulaic progress designed to get the audience hyped up.
