~ (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review

`This is a worthwhile book for readers interested in how television reaches audiences in the third largest language block in the world ... the book helps us break out of our own cultural-linguistic boundaries and learn what the other parts of the world are doing with the media.' Emile G. McAnany, Jnl of Communication, Winter 2000.

`Unlike a good many other authors of books on the global communication system ... Sinclair adds the cultural and linguistic dimension to the political and economic analysis of television.' Emile G. McAnany, Jnl of Communication, Winter 2000.

Product Description

Latin American Television makes English speakers aware of the dimensions, operation, and significance of the globalization of television in the Spanish-speaking world. Second only in scale to the market for English-language programming, the Spanish-language market embraces not just most nations of South and Central America but also Spain and the United States. The book chronicles and analyses the development and structure of the globalization of these markets as a `Latin world'.
