(Also, histories of particular programs or programming.) (c) dealing with media issues in general, and (d) on the digital era: the Internet, HDTV (High Definition Television), Satellite and Cable TV. Some books are aimed at the popular market rather than the academic but may provide a good introduction to the issues. Some are quite out of date (and out of print) but are included to provide an historical perspective. Check the date! Also, have a look at Public Broadcasting: New frontiers? for information about an extended bibliography dealing with the ABC and media issues.
