Description

Explore the deep connection between Americans and television through the lens of humor in this Routledge study. Thompson examines how the 1950s shaped the way people viewed politics, current events, and popular culture via comedy. This work tracks how satire and parody expanded across various media, including magazines, comic books, film, and comedy albums, alongside the rapid rise of the television medium. This book provides a look at how humor functioned as a tool that was simultaneously critical, commercial, and funny. It is an essential resource for those studying the evolution of media and the cultural impact of postwar American television. Whether you are researching media history or the development of satire, this text offers a detailed perspective on how comedy helped define a generation's understanding of the world.
