Exposed : Living with Scandal, Rumour, and Gossip Hardback
by Mia-Marie (Reader in Ethnology, Senior Lecturer in Media and Communication) Hammarlin
Part of the Lund University Press series
Hardback
Description
This book illuminates the personal experience of being at the centre of a media scandal.
It applies ethnological perspectives to empirical materials from a Swedish context to highlight the existential level of the phenomenon.
How does it feel to be exposed through scandalisation?
How does such an experience affect a person’s everyday life?
These are the urgent and fascinating questions that the book addresses.
It also highlights the fusion between face-to-face communication and traditional news media.
Gossip and rumour must be included in the idea of the media system for us to be able to understand the power of a media scandal, a finding leads to a critique of earlier research.
