A surprising bestseller when it was first published in France, this
little book by Pierre Bourdieu offers a brilliant critique of
television and its consequences for social and political life.
Rather than simply denouncing television as a misrepresentation or
trivialization of the social world, Bourdieu shows that television
journalists are part of a journalistic field that shapes their
actions and imposes a particular vision on the public, a vision
that is grounded in the very structure of the journalistic field
and that, through a variety of mechanisms specific to this field,
produces a general disenchantment with politics.
