Description

Policing the Media examines the reaction of a real police department in the USA to television representations of `cops′. Through interviews, personal observations and black and white photography, the author describes the lives and philosophies of street patrol officers, with close attention paid to the ambiguous attitudes they hold towards their televisual comrades.
