Poliittinen Talous

Timo Harjuniemi is joined by Reece Peck and Joonas Koivukoski to discuss media and politics in the US. We cover a wide range of topics: the birth of political cable news, the effects of tabloid culture on politics, left media populism, rebranding conservatism as working class, and the historical roots of culture wars. Reece Peck is an associate professor at the CUNY Graduate Center where he teaches courses in journalism, political communication and popular culture. www.reecepeck.com https://twitter.com/PeckReece Joonas Koivukoski is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Helsinki and KU Leuven in Belgium.
