Television Presenters as Cultural Intermediaries

随着电视节目的重大变化，特别是通过生活方式节目和真人秀节目等形式关注日常生活，研究保持对电视社会和文化功能的理解非常重要。该项目将研究向公众提供了哪些道德和社会建议，如何提供这些建议以及这些建议的背景是什么。调查的假设将使硬数据插入到关于媒体在社会中的作用的辩论中，也使行业本身受益。

With significant changes in television programming, especially its preoccupation with everyday life through formats such as lifestyle shows and reality TV, it is important that research maintains its understanding of television's social and cultural function. This project will examine what kinds of ethical and social advice are being presented to the public, how this advice is being given and what the context of such advice is. The hypotheses investigated will enable hard data to be inserted into debates about the media's role in society, benefiting the industry itself as well.
