About the book
"Constructing the Heartland uses television news coverage of the 1993 Midwest flood as a case study to analyze the intersection of television news and nature, with specific focus on how this intersection must be examined within the context of place. News, nature, and place are examined from a theoretical framework that combines ideas from cultural geography, media ecology, and television aesthetics. Furthermore, the book explores the ways in which contemporary television news accounts of natural disasters borrow from, alter and extend conceptions of nature as bound within certain geographic parameters."--Jacket.
