Popular Culture

Editors David M. Haugen and Susan Musser have compiled several fascinating essays that explore the value of popular culture. Can it make people smarter? Is blogging journalism? Does reality TV have merit? Is Twitter a catalyst for change? This book provides the answers as it looks at the relationship between the Internet and pop culture, the effect on society of the violence prevalent in pop culture, and the impact of America's pop culture on other parts of the world.
