Chunovic, Louis.
Adult Nonfiction 791.4509 C
From Library Journal:
The depiction of sex on television has always been controversial, and this book proves that it has also never been boring. Chunovic, a veteran TV reporter, author (Northern Exposure: The Book), and journalist (Hollywood Reporter), unfolds the history of sex on TV, using examples that span more than 40 years, from television's innocent beginnings in the 1950s to the medium's blatant sensationalism of the 1990s and beyond. He illustrates that, over the decades, network censors, parent groups, TV-rating guides, and cable TV premium channel services have often dictated what is deemed acceptable. One of the only volumes of its kind on the subject, this compact, up-to-date book is breezy, enlightening, and entertaining. Recommended for academic and public libraries with popular TV and media sections.DDavid M. Lisa, Mercyhurst Coll. Lib., Erie, PA (c) Copyright 2010.
