Television Presenters as Cultural Intermediaries

随着电视节目的显著变化，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，研究保持对电视的社会和文化功能的理解是重要的。这个项目将研究向公众提供什么样的道德和社会建议，这些建议是如何提出的，以及这些建议的背景是什么。被调查的假设将使有关媒体在社会中的角色的辩论中插入硬数据，这也有利于该行业本身。

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.
