interactive television film /Black Mirror: Bandersnatch/ and video game 
/Until Dawn/ to draw out how the formal elements of seemingly similar 
media can result in different types of audience engagement.

policing the boundaries of what constitutes a visual album, Laurel

The Lumineers’ “Gloria” as a key text.

Matthew Dewey, "Cord-Cutting Here, Untethering There: One Social 
Consequence of Cord-Cutting" // While the industry frames cord-cutting 
as a “life hack,” Matthew Dewey considers the social consequences that 
cord-cutting has on a city’s cable franchise fee.

explores the influence and implications of midcentury NYSE-sponsored 
training films for everyday stock market investors.

Danielle Williams, "From Catchphrase to Single: Examining Megan Thee

come to a close, Danielle Williams traces the evolution of a catchphrase 
into a branding strategy for freshman rapper Megan Thee Stallion.

Taylor Cole Miller, "Syndication 201: Syndication is Dead. Long Live 
Syndication." // In the first installment of a three-part series, Taylor 
Miller breaks down the intertwined economic and industrial practices of 
TV syndication.

Jennifer Hessler, "To Each Their Own Ad: Nielsen and the Addressable 
Future of Linear TV" // Jennifer Hessler discusses how Nielsen’s new 
machine learning systems are leading the drive to make linear TV 
addressable and what this means for the future of broadcasting.
