Despite the current of frustration about television that runs through American life, most Americans bypass public television for the sitcoms, serial dramas, soasp operas, music videos, game shows, and popular news programs churned out by the culture industries. This book traces the history of public broadcasting, questions public television’s commonsense priorities, and argues that its tendency to reject popular culture has undermined its capacity to serve the people it claims to represent.
