  • In an Enemy of the People, As We Watch Brothers Battle Over the Fate
    TunedBy Kellie Mecleary, Production Dramaturg, and Matthew Buckley Smith In In An Enemy of the People, as we watch brothers battle over the fate of their town, it is worth noting the role that the town paper, The People’s Daily Messenger, plays—the various ways in which it contributes to the machinations and outcome of the plot. The paper is a powerful tool, and its use in the play reflects the use of mass media in other times. In Arthur Miller’s day, the media that was fast becoming a central part of American life was television: as it grew in scope and influence, it took on the role of both informing and reflecting American society and culture. These pages provide an overview of the late ’50s and early ’60s through the major shows and events that dominated the small screen at the time.

  • The $64,000 Question (1955 – 1968) Host: Hal March
    COM308 Week 4 Notes—Quiz Show Scandal Purpose Today we are going to consider the formative years of TV and the quiz show scandal's impact on the TV business and a naive America. Background When CBS premiered "The $64,000 Question" in 1955, the show was more than a hit; it was a national phenomenon. No program in the short history of television had ever attracted so many viewers so quickly -- 47 million in ten weeks. Audiences loved the idea of watching people like themselves compete for huge sums of money by answering tough questions. "The common man as genius," one writer called it. More quiz shows followed, including "Twenty One" and "Tic Tac Dough." At the times these shows aired, the crime rate and movie theatre attendance actually dropped. What the viewing audience was to learn, but only much later, was that many of the TV quiz shows were fixed. Initially, popular contestants were favored with easier questions; they were "rehearsed" by the show's producers for hours before airtime. When producer Dan Enright saw ratings plummet for his show "Twenty One," he went even further, providing contestants with answers before air time. To make the charade convincing, Enright coached his hand-picked winners down to the smallest detail: when to stutter, mop their brow, bite their lip, even how to dress. The most famous of these contestants was Charles Van Doren. Young, intelligent, and handsome, Van Doren was "a bona fide egghead with enough sex appeal" to create a sensation. Slowly and painfully, the deceit unraveled. When a Congressional investigation revealed that wholesome Van Doren and the quiz shows were a fraud, Americans felt angry and betrayed.

    How to Be A Public Person of Letters in the 21’st Century by Carol Houlihan Flynn, Tufts University A funny thing happens when professors of English Literature try to instruct the public. Not that there is actually one “public.” In our fragmented, multicultural, post- modern society, most of us move quite fluidly between many public spheres, and become in the process invested in various and complex political, intellectual, cultural and spiritual agendas. Without insisting upon the existence of one public, I would like to suggest that a large number of the most literate and most vocal consumers of culture have strong opinions about what English Professors should be doing, or perhaps more importantly, what they should not be doing. In fact, these disparate publics might be united in their shared suspicions about the power of cultural critics. This public believes that it owns English in a way that it does not own mathematics or biology or philosophy. Born or thrust into the language, it speaks it, reads it, writes it with a relatively clear sense of what it should mean. While they are not united by their experiences, (bilingual speakers and writers of English may have very different ideas about what literacy means), members of this public expect a relatively high degree of consistency from professors of their language and culture. This public values coherence, ethical values, and historical continuity, and looks to the English profession to enforce these principles, to make them central to the mission of the English departments in universities across the land. At the same time, professors of English have become over the last 30 years increasingly alienated from projects designed to protect “core” values of our culture.

  • Television - the Dream and the Reality
    Marquette University e-Publications@Marquette Marquette University Press Publications 1960 Television - The Dream and the Reality Robert Shayon Follow this and additional works at: https://epublications.marquette.edu/mupress-book TELEVISION THE DREAM AND THE REALITY by ROBERT SHAYON TELEVISION THE DREAM AND THE REALITY ference again. There are more responsible elements in the broadcasting industry, who are genuinely hoping that they can use the present climate as an opportunity to win some real gains for broadcasting "in the public interest, convenience and necessity." But there are also elements who are genuinely hoping to ride out the storm. They expect the American public to lose interest, to switch attention to the next big headline story that comes along, to lapse again into apathy, boredom on the sub­ ject, or even to the feeling of "Well, there's no business like show buainess," and "What's wrong with a little fun anyway?" These people will hedge, drag their feet, temporize as long as they can, hoping for the storm of public in­ dignation to blow itself out. And just as in real life, there are not only "the good guys" and "the bad guys," there are also the "gray guys," the people in between, the people who may say as Paul said: "The good thal I would I do not, and the evil I would not, that I do." These are the men and women enmeshed in TV's com­ plex dilemmas. The real problem is not how to ·polish up the minor surf:,.ces of television's blandishment and de­ ception, but how to refashion its architecture so that the image it· presents to thoughtful individuals is mostly positive instead of largely negative.
