Description
Norman Fairclough's Media Discourse explores the study of media language, applying his critical discourse analysis framework to understand changing media practices in relation to broader social and cultural shifts.
Through analysis of TV, radio, and newspaper examples, Fairclough examines the tensions between public and private in the media, as well as the balance between information and entertainment.
This book provides a valuable insight into the evolving nature of media discourse, shedding light on the ways in which media language reflects and shapes societal attitudes and values.
