As we eagerly anticipate the outcome of the election, Mediascape is pleased to announce the publication of the <http://www.tft.ucla.edu/mediascape/>Fall ?08 issue. In light of the hypermediated political environment that has engulfed our nation for the last few months (years?), we chose to focus this issue on the theme of politics and the political in media. The work in this issue includes:
