GETTING BETTER
Television and Moral Progress
Henry J. Perkinson
With a new epilogue by the author
Ever since the 1950s, when television became ascendent In American popular
culture, It has become commonplace to bemoan its “bad“ effects. Little or
nothing, however, has been said about its “good effects. With this observation,
Henry Perkinson introduces his provocative and original analysis of television
and culture. Rejecting the determinism inherent in most studies of the effects
of television (“we are what we watch”), he insists that It is people that actively
change culture, media having no agency to do so. Nevertheless, he argues
that television did facilitate the changes we have made in our culture over
the past thirty years.
In the new epilogue, Henry Perkinson discusses the current state of
television and the changes that have occurred in the first half of this decade.
He examines how reporters have become not just messengers of information
but the message itself. They become the focus of stories as they search for
the scandalous side of all issues and persons. Perkinson also shows how
America continues to be driven by moralist politics, launched and sustained
by television.
In what amounts to a history of recent social change in America, Getting
Better examines the role television has played in the rise of feminism, the
black protest movement, the presidential elections, the Vietnam War,
Watergate, environmentalism, religious fundamentalism, and the New Age
movement. This book will be essential reading for students of communications
and American culture, and for anyone who wants to make sense of the
transformations of American life from the 1950s to the present. Even those
who do not agree that things are “getting better will find that Perkinson’s
analysis helps to make things more coherent.
“This book is well written and, although these ideas are complex and difficult
and the distinctions fine, it is accessible to students and they would, I think,
find it exciting. -William Petkanas, Western Connecticut State University
