    SIGHTS OF RACIAL VIOLENCE: New Media Technologies and Acts of Watching, Memory, and Legitimation by Wendy Sung A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (American Culture) in the University of Michigan 2016 Doctoral Committee: Professor Lisa A. Nakamura, Chair Associate Professor Colin Gunckel Professor Yeidy M. Rivero Associate Professor Sarita E. See, University of California, Riverside DEDICATION For my mother and my grandmother— for us. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Temporality has been crucial for this project in many ways: the interplay of memory and image, the tenuous writing of history and its inevitable rewriting, but also in the difficulties of thinking deeply about a subject that inspires rage, fatigue, and hopelessness. These feelings delayed the completion of the project in unforeseen ways. If the project had been completed in the ideal time allotted by initial funding possibilities, it would look very different and would be far less rich. Thus, I want to acknowledge the many non-starts, refusals, and reluctancies that inevitably were overcome by the immediacy of the project and many Internet-deprived hours of coffee shop work. This was made possible by the generous support of the American Culture department, without which I might never have been able to see the Black Lives Matter movement make a constitutive mark on this dissertation. It goes without saying but still must be said that I am eternally indebted to my committee. Colin, thank you for being a crucial part of bringing Ann Arbor to our favorite city and for offering many invaluable insights that have made this dissertation better.

  • How American Idol Constructs Celebrity, Collective Identity, and American Discourses
    AMERICAN IDEAL: HOW AMERICAN IDOL CONSTRUCTS CELEBRITY, COLLECTIVE IDENTITY, AND AMERICAN DISCOURSES A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy By Amanda Scheiner McClain May, 2010 i © Copyright 2010 by Amanda Scheiner McClain All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT This dissertation is a three-pronged study examining American themes, celebrity, and collective identity associated with the television program American Idol. The study includes discourse analyses of the first seven seasons of the program, of the season seven official American Idol message boards, and of the 2002 and 2008 show press coverage. The American themes included a rags-to-riches narrative, archetypes, and celebrity. The discourse-formed archetypes indicate which archetypes people of varied races may inhabit, who may be sexual, and what kinds of sexuality are permitted. On the show emotional exhibitions, archetypal resonance, and talent create a seemingly authentic celebrity while discourse positioning confirms this celebrity. The show also fostered a complication-free national American collective identity through the show discourse, while the online message boards facilitated the formation of two types of collective identities: a large group of American Idol fans and smaller contestant-affiliated fan groups. Finally, the press coverage study found two overtones present in the 2002 coverage, derision and awe, which were absent in the 2008 coverage. The primary reasons for this absence may be reluctance to criticize an immensely popular show and that the American Idol success was no longer surprising by 2008. By 2008, American Idol was so ingrained within American culture that to deride it was to critique America itself.

  • Addiction and Celebritization: Reality Television
    ADDICTION AND CELEBRITIZATION: REALITY TELEVISION PORTRAYALS OF DRUG ABUSE TREATMENT by MARK C. LASHLEY (Under the Direction of Horace Newcomb) ABSTRACT This thesis examines the ways in which reality television portrays the treatment of drug and alcohol abuse through analysis of two television series, Intervention and Celebrity Rehab With Dr. Drew. The only two reality series that directly address addiction, one serves as a traditional life intervention program, while the other exists within the new milieu of Celebreality. The thesis explores the way in which the structural elements of the two series, and the processes of celebritization, influence the portrayal of addicts on screen, while the reality television participants use sophisticated methods of performance to define themselves. This thesis contends that, while both programs purport to operate as public service, that goal is undermined by a number of structural and theoretical factors.
