Dates and William Barlow (Washington, DC: Howard University Press, 1993 (2nd ed.), ISBN: 978-0882581798 [Paperback], 574 pp., Introduction and Conclusion, 10 chapters, photographs, bibliographic essay, index) was an early, if not the first, comprehensive view of AfricanAmericans in the media. Through careful analyses of historical facts, Dates and Barlow offered critical analyses of the cultural representation of African Americans in all arenas of the media at that time, including film, radio, commercial and public television, print and broadcast news, advertising, and public relations. Although they are listed alternately as authors and editors, Dates and Barlow wrote at least 90 percent of the content, with additional contributions from Reebee Garofalo and Lee Thornton. Beginning with a reference to W.E. B. Du Bois’ concept of “double consciousness,” which he described in his 1903 book, Souls of Black Folks, Dates and Barlow applied this idea as a thematic construct to their investigations. In doing so, they provided foundational work in the analysis of identity and media that modeled not only how scholars could approach the duality of mediated representation and social realities, but how history and theory could be used to contextualize such topics. Dates is Dean Emerita of Howard University’s School of Communication [currently named after media pioneer Cathy Hughes], where she served in leadership for close to nineteen years. She is a recognized authority on media and the representations of African Americans in popular culture. Barlow, who died in June 2017, was a longtime Howard University professor in Howard’s department of Radio, Television and Film and a popular radio host for WPFW 89.3 FM in Washington, DC.

With a title accented by a registered trademark icon, this book explains and reviews contemporary advertising practices across varied media, including newspapers, television, gaming apps, YouTube videos and mobile technologies. Framed by a media literacy sensibility, Einstein examines the rising sophistication of consumers concerning advertising, aided by the technology that has given them the choice to avoid it. Then, the author compares this with a concurrent rise in the industry’s subtler, hidden, even deceptive strategies designed to keep ads in front of as many eyeballs as possible. Key chapters included key definitions of the media landscape, conceptual ties between marketing and advertising, and an exploration of why the use of “big data” reigns as a significant factor in the current and future dominance of advertising messages. Einstein, a former advertising and marketing executive, is a professor of Media Studies at Queens College, City University.","PeriodicalId":38174,"journal":{"name":"Communication Booknotes Quarterly","volume":"48 1","pages":"35 - 50"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/10948007.2017.1402635","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47346636","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
