Abstract

The editorial in the Journal of Communication Inquiry explores the concept of truth as a function of power and dominance, emphasizing how societal structures influence what is accepted as true. The issue delves into how media representations perpetuate narratives, myths, and ideologies that can oppress and erase certain voices and bodies. The articles in this edition examine topics such as cultural insularity in media consumption, representational politics, narratives in popular culture, resistance against dominant narratives, and the intersection of rape culture and popular media in India. The issue concludes with a review of a book on celebrity rhetoric and sexual misconduct cases. The authors express gratitude to contributors, reviewers, and readers for engaging with the journal's work. [Extracted from the article]
