Book Synopsis Reality TV’s Real Men of the Recession by : Shannon O'Sullivan
Book excerpt: In the 2000s, reality programs showcasing white, working-class men performing hazardous occupations in wilderness settings proliferated on U.S. cable networks. Shannon O’Sullivan argues that this genre represents a reactionary veneration of white, rural, working-class men as “real Americans” amid the Great Recession and current events.
