each invention of new media, from the printing press to the
internet. The Myth of Media Violence examines the current and
historical debates over one of the most widely discussed yet little
understood issues of our time: the social and cultural effects of
violence in film, television, and video games.
Written in an accessible style, this book explains the need for
media violence, and why, despite decades of activism against
them, violent media outlets continue to grow and develop at a
rapid pace. Engaging examples are drawn from a range of media,
including disaster and horror movies, science fiction, film tie-in
toys, crime shows, MTV, news, sports, and children s television
programming, books, and video games. The book also
investigates the forces encouraging social anxieties, why violence
in media exists at all, and how society can deal with it.
