Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the representation of marginalized identities, this book explores how disability, obesity, and aging are portrayed in media, particularly in television and online forums. Through case studies from popular reality shows, dramas, and comedies in the UK, USA, and Australia, it highlights the symbolic power of media in shaping perceptions and reactions to these identities. The analysis reveals how societal attitudes contribute to the ongoing stigma surrounding these groups, emphasizing their status as 'spurned' identities in contemporary culture.
