This accessible and thought-provoking book provides a critical insight into the relationship between the media and the public. It examines the way in which the public is represented, referred to and portrayed in the media, and how the media acts or speaks on the public’s behalf. The first part explores the political side of the relationship between the media and the public. This includes interesting discussion of advocacy in political interviews and the discursive arrangement of political discussion programmes. The second part of the book examines a range of discourses outside of the political realm. Michael Higgins looks at the construction of ordinariness, authenticity and public legitimacy, the relationship between institutional and media expertise, and the exercise of public decency. He argues that what unites the relationships between media and forms of public are their concern with wider issues of politics, governance, and cultural influence.The author offers a range of illustrative examples of broadcasting from US, Australian and British contexts, providing students with a rage of engaging international examples with which to draw comparisons and compare their own media experiences. Each chapter includes recommended texts for further reading and questions for discussion.The Media and Their Publics is an essential text for students and researchers in media studies, cultural policy and political communications.

This book is a personal testimony of the life of Michael Higgins, founder of Jesus Loves You Love Him Back feeding ministry, based in Orlando, Florida. It chronicles Higgins' life from three different perspectives-before he started using cocaine, to the 23 years he suffered under its soul-shredding spell (losing everything dear to him in the process), to that glorious moment when God miraculously delivered him from the bondage of drug addiction and many other vices that had consumed him. It also chronicles Jesus Loves You Love Him Back feeding ministry, which God entrusted to him after he was finally clean and sober. What began in 2009, with feeding 25 homeless folks in downtown Orlando, has since mushroomed into feeding 250,000 meals, spanning four countries so far...and counting...After receiving their 501c3 early in 2014, Jesus Loves You Love Him Back feed-ing ministry now feeds the homeless once a month in Jacksonville, Daytona Beach, Tampa, St. Petersburg, Sarasota and Miami Florida. They have also done feedings in Philadelphia, PA., New York City, New Orleans, LA. Nashville, TN. Chicago, IL., Las Vegas, NV, Los Angeles, CA., Cancun, Mexico, various locations in Brazil and the Philippines.
