public 122-1995 Post three : Popular Music (1)
Much university work on television has been about news and
documentary, political bias, agenda setting and so on, which are indeed
important subjects. Yet television transformed public views of many other
aspects of culture, and the BBC’s very gradual move away from rigid elitism can
be seen in many of the changes brought about in broadcasting. Let us take the
case of popular music. This television programme from October 1960 – Juke Box
Jury – shows a series of prejudices against popular music, and indeed against working class people in general, I think.
