Hi everyone,

A colleague of mine is teaching a graduate class this fall on Political
Communication, and wanted to devote at least a day to issues of popular
culture.  He's looking now for readings.  Can anyone recommend an article
or book chapter that discusses political issues in film/TV?  I realize this
potentially could be a huge subject, but he's looking for discussions of
politics with a small "p":  scholarship that addresses things like popular
culture portrayals of politicians, portrayals of campaigns, or the
influence of popular culture upon political activity.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.  Thanks!
