Media/Society: Industries, Images, and Audiences (4th Ed)
D. Croteau, W. Hoynes and S. Milan
In a society saturated by mass media, from newspapers and magazines, television and radio, to digital video projects and the Internet, iPods and TiVo, most students possess a great deal of media knowledge and experience before they ever enter the classroom.

Â
This book provides that context and helps students develop skills for critically evaluating both conventional wisdom and one’s own assumptions about the social role of the media.Â
