This course examines the production, representation and cultural meaning of Latino Media in the U.S. This class will provide a general survey of Latino media in the U.S. particular focuses on the cultures of production of Spanish and English language television, radio, film, advertising, newspapers, magazines and internet-based media.
This class examines the intersecting dynamics of media genres and geo-linguistic cultural markets in the configuration of global and regional media flows. It looks in particular at the way media genres travel and how their circulation raises issues about the cultural power of certain media narratives in specific historical, political and social conditions of consumption. We will examine the battle for national, regional, and global media markets as a struggle for the ’Slegitimate’ cultural and political view of the world expressed through information (news), scientific discourse (documentaries), and popular culture (films, tele novels, reality television, music) to understand the complex global flow of television programs and films.
