Religion on Television (Horace M. Newcomb). 3. Television and Public Virtue (Robert S. Alley). 4. Network News Coverage of Religion (Judith M. Buddenbaum). 5. Religious Television Spots (John P. Ferre). 6. Religious Watchdog Groups and Prime-Time Programming (Mark Fackler). Notes. Index. In Channels of Belief, six scholars of the mass media discuss the religious significance of commercial television. The first two analyses examine the religiousness of commercial television broadly. The third explores the ''democratic humanism'' of those who create and produce the narratives that are watched. The next analyzes religion on network news, where democratic humanism is less apparent and where news coverage emphasizes events over beliefs. Religious television spots and religious watchdog groups are the subjects of the final two chapters. Control of the public arena for religious expression, especially discussed in the final chapter, is an underlying concern throughout Channels of Belief. The authors recognize, and even affirm, the potential of broadcasting to service the religious needs of the public, but they also understand the technological, organizational, economic, and social constraints that shape the religious dimensions of American television.
