""Exceptionally well-researched, this book highlights the transformative ways that entertainment television has intersected with, shaped, and influenced US political history.""--Allison Perlman, author of Public Interests: Media Advocacy and Struggles Over US Television ""In this original and engaging study, Oscar Winberg reexamines the landmark 1970s sitcom All in the Family, revealing how it reshaped the relationship between television and American politics. Drawing a compelling line from the show's cultural influence to the rise of Donald Trump, Winberg offers a fresh perspective on media, power, and popular culture.""--John Chappell, Webster University ""In this well-written book, Oscar Winberg shows how politics remade television in 1970s America and how, in turn, television remade politics."" -- Kevin M. Kruse, author of One Nation Under God: How Corporate America Invented Christian America
