Summary, in English
There is a long critical literature about popular television's role in the public sphere of modern society, underscoring its many shortcomings. While not negating these problems, this chapter suggests that TV (and popular culture) offer opportunities for audiences to air, process, and make political sense of changing cultural horizons, norms, and values.
