Description - Who's Responsible Here? by Robert A. Emmons
Who's Responsible Here?: Media, Audience, Ethics presents essays that challenge readers to examine and take responsibility for their role as media consumers. While there are undeniable ethical responsibilities placed upon a medium or media outlet and the content it creates, the media cycle that the audience participates in also requires a level of awareness and active participation of the consumer.
The articles in Who's Responsible Here?:
- First acclimate the reader to the language of media and audience studies with essays on communication, media, and audience theory.
- Then guide readers through contemporary ethical issues and concerns within the media before finally turning attention to the audience and their role.
- Ultimately create a discussion on defining the relationship and responsibilities between media and society; this is especially important at a time when the democratization of media has allowed audiences to become content producers themselves.
