Description: "Programming Reality is a collection of original essays that explore the television programs that have thrived in the Canadian regulatory and cultural context - the programs that straddle, and even blur, the border between reality and fiction. The interdisciplinary articles in Programming Reality: Perspectives on English-Canadian Television - the first anthology dedicated exclusively to the analysis of Canadian television content - combine textual analysis with that of the political economy of media communications."--Jacket.
