About the book
Using extensive interviews with talk show production staff and former guests, hundreds of transcripts, focus-group discussions with viewers, and his own experiences as a frequent studio audience member, Joshua Gamson brings to life the wild, paradoxical process through which stigmatized individuals become stars of tabloid television.
First sentence: Let's begin here: talk shows are bad for you, so bad you could catch a cold.
