Public issue television is a major contribution to understanding the relationship between television, politics, and society. Based on full access to the archives, it offers a fascinating historical account of how one television series--Granada's World in Action, celebrated for its tough journalism, visual directness, and public impact--functioned and developed over its run across 35 years between 1963 and 1998. This book gets deep inside the making of factual television and examines how a particular culture of production works within broader conditions of possibility and constraint. As well as discussing achievement and success, it examines the tensions, the debates and open conflicts that formed part of the context within which the series was made and transmitted across four decades.

Public issue television is a major contribution to understanding the relationship between television, politics and society. Based on full access to the archives, it offers a fascinating historical account of how one television series, Granada's World in Action, celebrated for its tough journalism, visual directness and public impact, functioned and developed over its run across 35 years between 1963 and 1998. In a succession of chapters looking at different periods in the series' development and at key dimensions of its distinctive identity, it gets deep inside the making of factual television and examines how a particular culture of production works within broader conditions of possibility and constraint. In particular, it charts the interwoven processes of change - technological, professional, aesthetic, institutional, economic, social and political. As well as discussing achievement and success, it examines the tensions, the debates and open conflicts that formed part of the context within which the series was made and transmitted across four decades.

Pockets of resistance: British news media, war and theory in the 2003 invasion of Iraq

For scholars of media and war, the 2003 invasion of Iraq is a compelling case to study. As part of President Bush's 'war on terror', the invasion was the most controversial British foreign policy decision since Suez, and its ramifications and aftermath have rarely been far from the news. In the many political and public debates regarding this conflict, arguments over the role of the media have been omnipresent. For some, media coverage was biased against the war, for others it became a cheerleader for the invasion. Where does the truth lie? Drawing upon a uniquely-detailed and rich content and framing analysis of television and press coverage, and on interviews with some of the journalists involved, Pockets of Resistance provides an authoritative assessment of how British news media reported the 2003 Iraq invasion and also of the theoretical implications of this case for our understanding of wartime media-state relations. Pockets of Resistance examines the successes and failures of British television news as it sought to attain independence under the difficult circumstances of war, and describes and explains the emergence of some surprisingly vociferous anti-war voices within a diverse national press.

<p>This Rolling Stones tour was photographed/documented by Philip Kamim, a famous music photographer from Toronto, Canada (b.1955). Unlike most of his peers, Kamin kept most of his collection from the public and copyrighted the images. Some of these he provided to the stars he toured with, others went into 35 music titles his publishing company produced. But thousands of amazing rock and roll images stayed archived in his personal collection." Philip Kamin picked up a camera for the first time in July 1978. A chance encounter with Phil Collins led him to instantly become tour photographer for Genesis. His work met with immediate success, spreading his name throughout the United Kingdom's rock'n'roll circuit. What set Philip Kamin's work apart from many industry photographers was exclusivity: he never sold his photographs to newspapers, magazines or photo agencies. Kamin built his solid reputation by touring and selling his work directly to the bands he photographed, the bands' managers, their public relations firms, record companies or merchandisers. Kamin has "published over 90 books, including 40 in music, plus novels, non-fiction, trade paperbacks and coffee table books in a variety of subjects. In addition to Genesis, Kamin has worked with The Rolling Stones, Mick Jagger, Paul McCartney &amp; Wings, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, The Who, Peter Gabriel, Phil Collins, YES, The Clash, AC/DC, Rush, King Crimson, Bill Bruford, Van Halen, Roxy Music, Black Sabbath, The Cars and John Belushi/Dan Ackroyd, just to name a few. Kamin did his last shoot in May 1985 for Madonna. Philip's work received such critical acclaim that he formed a publishing company in 1982, producing full-color 128 page books documenting the tours of many of the above-mentioned groups. Philip Kamin's work has appeared on record album covers, earning him gold record awards.</p>
