November Luncheon: Politics & Popular Culture with Dr. Roderick P. Hart

November Luncheon: "Politics & Popular Culture" with Dr. Roderick P. Hart
Start Date: 5-Nov-08 11:30 AM
End Time: 5-Nov-08 1:30 PM
Location: Briar Club, Houston, TX 77027
Speaker: Dr. Roderick P. Hart

Event Details:

Join us the day after the presidential election to hear an analysis of the impact of popular culture on politics from a reknowned expert: UT's Dr. Roderick P. Hart. PRSA Houston will generously donate the proceeds of this luncheon to the Public Relations Foundation of Houston, the mission of which is to enhance the quality of education by creating a permanent educational endowment that provides scholarships for students studying communications and/or public relations at local universities.

"Roderick Hart may be among the few Americans who believe that what politicians say in a campaign actually matters. He also believes that campaigns work. Even as television coverage, political ads, and opinion polls turn elections into field days for marketing professionals, Hart argues convincingly that campaigns do play their role in sustaining democracy, mainly because they bring about a dialogue among candidates, the press, and the people. He takes a close look at the exchange of ideas through language used in campaign speeches, political advertising, public debates, print and broadcast news, and a wide variety of letters to the editor. In each case, the participants choose their words differently, and this, according to Hart, can be a frustrating challenge to anyone trying to make sense of the issues. Yet he finds that the process is good for Americans: campaigns inform us about issues, sensitize us to the concerns of others, and either encourage us to vote or at least heighten our sense of the political world." - eBooks about Politics
