    A COMPREHENSIVE ANALYSIS OF TELEVISION’S LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL, AND TRANSGENDER IMAGES. words and images matter NETWORK RESPONSIBILITY INDEX TABLE OF CONTENTS • TABLE OF CONTENTS TK EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 3 ABC 8 CBS 10 CW 12 FOX 14 NBC 16 ABC FAMILY 18 FX 20 HBO 22 HISTORY 24 MTV 26 SHOWTIME 28 TBS 31 TLC 32 TNT 34 USA 36 MORE CABLE NETWORKS 38 BIOS 41 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The GLAAD Network Responsibility Index (NRI) is an evaluation of the quantity and quality of images of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgen- der (LGBT) people on television. It is intended to serve as a road map toward increasing fair, accurate, and inclusive LGBT media representations. GLAAD has seen time and again how images of multi-dimensional gay and transgender people on television have the power to change public percep- tions. The Pulse of Equality Survey, commissioned by GLAAD and conducted by Harris Interactive, confirmed a growing trend toward greater acceptance among the American public. Among the 19% who reported that their feelings toward gay and lesbian people have become more favorable over the past 5 years, 34% cited “seeing gay or lesbian characters on television” as a contrib- uting factor. In fact when Vice President Joe Biden endorsed marriage equality this year, he cited the NBC sitcom Will & Grace as one of the factors that led to a better understanding of the LGBT community by the American public. As diverse LGBT images in the media become more prevalent, the general public becomes exposed to the truth of the LGBT community: lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender Americans are parents and teachers, law enforce- ment and soldiers, high school students and loving elderly couples.

  • Post-Blackness and Culinary Nostalgia in Marcus Samuelsson's
    Post-Blackness and Culinary Nostalgia 5 Post-Blackness and Culinary Nostalgia in Marcus Samuelsson’s Yes, Chef Badia Ahad On a recent Sunday afternoon, I found myself lying on the couch indulging in an afternoon marathon of my favorite television show, Chopped, which airs on The Food Network. I cannot explain why I take such perverse pleasure in watching the anxiety-ridden countenances of “chef-testants” upon being given a hodge-podge of four ingredients as disparate as calf’s liver, gummy bears, Swiss chard, and smoked gouda and charged with transforming them into a tasty dish in less than 20 minutes. In one particular episode, while introducing the illustrious panel of judges, host Ted Allen referred to Marcus Samuelsson as the “New Harlem Renaissance” chef.1 Naturally, I was intrigued. As a scholar of contemporary African-American literature and culture, I have been careful to stay abreast of emerging black artistic movements and trends. But the “New Harlem Renaissance” was a moniker for a seemingly localized black cultural, artistic, and apparently, culinary, rebirth of which I knew little. Ultimately, this led to an afternoon of pursuing all things Marcus Samuels- son. While doing so, I came across the November 2008 issue of Food and Wine that featured an article entitled, “The New Harlem Renaissance,” highlighting the easy friendship and culinary collaboration between Chef Marcus Samuels- son, owner of the Red Rooster restaurant, and Thelma Golden, director of the Studio Museum of Harlem. The article in Food and Wine details Golden and Samuelsson’s plans for an elaborate dinner party to celebrate the publication 0026-3079/2016/5404-005$2.50/0 American Studies, 54:4 (2016): 5–26 5 6 Badia Ahad of his then-new cookbook, The Soul of a New Cuisine, which pays homage to the African food cultures that Samuelsson believes have gone virtually ignored in Western culinary spheres.

Indicative of this move toward an increase in food-related programming is the recent unveiling of the cable offering Cooking Channel. Creators behind Cooking Channel have worked to establish a distinct brand, describing the channel as a place for ―food people‖ who are authentically and passionately ―interested in upping their food IQ‖ (Scripps). The discourse surrounding the Cooking Channel launch is further complicated by the fact that men have an ostensibly larger presence on the channel. Men are featured in promotional spots, press releases, and on programs that take viewers on quests to increase their cultural food capital. This project works to unravel the gendered discourses surrounding the U.S.
