Bourgault (mass communication, Northern Michigan U.-Marquette) analyzes the historical, political, economic, social, cultural, and stylistic factors that have shaped media products in African radio, television, and newspapers. She investigates the three major influences of the precolonial legacy of the oral tradition, the presence of an alienated managerial class, and the domination of African nations by systems based on patronage, and looks at recent developments in technology and the move toward privatization.
