Description

Explore the evolution of crime legends and urban myths in this academic study from Routledge. No Way of Knowing: Crime, Urban Legends and the Internet provides a detailed look at how crime narratives are shared and transformed across different eras of communication. The text compares the treatment of crime legends in old media, such as news reports and fictional film or television, with the modern landscape of new media. It tracks how interactive discussions circulate through Internet newsgroups and electronic mail lists, offering a fresh perspective on rumor research. By analyzing the social context of these stories, this book examines how the transition from mid-20th century rumor research to today's digital age has changed the way we consume and discuss urban legends. It is an essential resource for those interested in American popular history, culture, and the digital lifestyle.
