Public Television : Panacea, Pork Barrel, or Public Trust? (Contributions to the Study of Mass Media and Communications)
Editorial Reviews
Review
“A must for anyone interested in how public broadcasting got into the mess in which it now finds itself. The book is filled with interesting anecdotes and penetrating observations about the evolution of the bureaucracy at CPB and PBS.”–
Book Description
This hard-hitting history of public television over the last twenty years fills a void in the literature and shows how powerful political actors and the budget process have severely affected TV strategic behavior and programming. This remarkable case study of public television funding, organization, and programming defines what makes public organizations effective or not. The ancillary text links the evaluation of public TV to analyses of organization theory and models.
