About Me
- Jeff
- I am a Ph.D. candidate in the social sciences and humanities at the University of Connecticut. My research addresses the relationship between gender, culture, and mass communication. Questions that interest me include: How does gender "get done" in mass media? How have the discourses of gender, sex, and sexuality in media shifted across time? What does it mean to talk about "culture" in contemporary media - especially in broadcast television news? Do ideas about "nation" and "culture" become conflated with one another? What does it mean to use such terms synonymously?
