3、age.Daytime TV Talk ShowsWhats Their Appeal?Its no secret that television has become the public interest for Americans, the one central source of information and public debate on matters of national importance. 98 percent of us live in homes in Which the TV set is on seven-and-half hours a day; 67 p
4、ercent of us get all our information from TV. This is not a matter of laziness, stupidity, or even the seductive power of the tube. It is a tragic fact that illiteracyactual and functionalis rampant (普遍). It is difficult if not impossible for more of us to read, even when we try. Television, in such
5、 cases, is a necessity.The emergence of TV talk showsIn the early 1950s, when TV emerged as the dominant cultural form, it represented to us a middle-aged, middle-class, white-male image of authority. Network prime time was TV, and what it gave us, from dusk to bedtime, was a series of white middle-
6、class fathers assuring us night after night that they knew best, that all was in good hands, that we neednt worry about the many scary, confusing changes brought by postwar capitalism.Ever since the 1960s, however, this has been harder and harder to manage. The breakdown of the family, the crisis in
7、 education, religion, and the credibility of the state, the growing visibility and vocality of minority groups and ideasall these took the country and media by storm. The most recent dramatic proof of the impact of social crisis and the progressive movements they spawned is the amazing media talks a
8、bout “ multiculturalism“ and “ political correctness“ on campuses.The primary goal of talk shows as a television form is to attract curious audiences and sell them products, not revolution, thus calling for the circus-like atmosphere and the need for bizarre and giggle-inducing topics and participan
9、ts.Still, the influence of feminism and other social and cultural movements is there, and the result is more interesting and contradictory because of it. Donahue, Oprah, and pals have reproduced the experience of being in a group and sharing deeply personal and significant matters with others in the
10、 same boat.TV talk show : its uniquenessOne reason those shows appeal is because, in agreement with the democratic thrust of 1960s feminism, their structure approaches the non-hierarchical (无级别). The host is still the star, of course. But in terms of authority, she or he is far from central. The phy
11、sical set enforces this fact. Audiences and participants sit in a circular form andthis is the only TV format in which this happensspeak out, sometimes without being called on. They yell at each other and at host, disagree with experts, and come to no authoritative conclusions. There is something ex
12、hilarating about watching people who are usually invisiblebecause of class, race, gender, statushaving their say and, often, being wholly disrespectful to their “betters“.The discussion of black women with blond hair, for example, ignited (引起) a shouting match between those for whom such behavior me
13、ant a disavowal of ones “blackness“, a desire to “be white“, and those who insisted it was simply a matter of choosing how one whished to look, no different from the behavior of white women who dye their hair or tan their bodies. The audience, selected from the black community, argued with everythin
14、g that was said. Both participants and audience members attacked the “expert“, a black writer committed to the natural to “black is beautiful“.This is as close as television gets to open discourse on serious issues. But it is only possible because the issues discussed are not taken seriously by thos
15、e in power. And that is why the sensationalism of these shows is double-edged. If they were respectable in their style and choice of issues, theyd be reined in more. By allowing themselves to seem light-hearted and trashy, they manage to carry on often-serious discussion without being cut off the ai
16、r or cleaned up.This may seem contradictory, but its not. The truth is that the emotional matters brought up on Oprah, Donahue, Sally, and the others are almost always related in some way to deep cultural and structural problems I our society. TV talk show : brings us to nowhereI have been stressing
17、 the positive side of these shows primarily because of their difference from their highbrow, prime-time counterparts, which are far more reactionary in form and content. It is, in grand scheme of things as they are, a good thing to have these arenas of ideological interaction and open-endedness.But,
18、 these shows are a dead end, and theyre meant to be. They lead nowhere but to the drug store for more Excedrin. In fact, whats most infuriating (逢迎) about them is not that they are in bad taste. It is that they work to contain real political change. What talk shows have done is take the best insight
19、s and traditions of a more politicized time and drop them. They are all talk and no action.This makes perfect sense. It is the nature of the mass media in a contradictory social environment to take progressive ideas, once they gain strength, and contain them in the large, immobilizing structure of t
20、he political status quo (现状).We are allowed to voice our woes (困难). We are allowed to argue, cry, shout, whatever. We are even allowed to hear about approved services and institutions that might help with this or that specific bruise or wound. But we are not allowed to rock the political or economic
21、 boat of television by suggesting that things could be different. That would rightly upset the sponsor and network heads.
