Kommunikative Herstellung von Infotainment

Using the methodology of modality-specific enhanced conversational analysis, this study examines how a TV cooking show imparts a social reality within the genre of mass-media infotainment. The study focuses on the verbal and physical-visual procedures used by the interacting parties to carry out the constitutive conversational activities of "informing," "educating," and "evaluating" in a genre-specific manner.
