Media, Place, and Multiculturalism.
Meyrowitz, Joshua; Maguire, John
Society, v30 n5 p41-48 Jul-Aug 1993
Explores the role of television in American culture. America may be more diverse than ever in race, ethnicity, and religion, but, because of mass media, there is less diversity in experience, perspectives, and expectation. Subcultures that once manifested existence locally now look to television for verification of their existence. (SLD)
