Following up on Chris Berry's post about Documentary and TV Resources:
Michael Renov's book on theorizing the documentary is called "Theorizing
Documentary" (Routledge 1993).  I would also suggest Michael Curtin's
excellent "Redeeming the Wasteland: Television Documentary and Cold War
Politics" (Rutgers 1995) as well as the parts of Bill Nichols' "Blurred
Boundaries" (Indiana 1994) dealing with Rodney King, reality TV and
documentary performance.
