FYI, a new volume just came out on social class and media - I have a chapter on methodological considerations vis-a-vis social class when collecting and analyzing internet data. Details below on the book.
MEDIA AND CLASS: TV, FILM, AND DIGITAL CULTURE (Routledge, 2017)
Edited by June Deery and Andrea Press
Contributors: Mark Banks, Anita Biressi, Richard Butsch, John Corner, June Deery, David Hesmondhalgh, Jilly Boyce Kay, Jo Littler, Sonia Livingstone, Aline Maia, Vicki Mayer, Laurie Ouellette, Andrea Press, Marjorie Rosen , Jen Schradie, Julian Sefton-Green, Rob Wilkie, Milly Williamson and Helen Wood.
Although the idea of class is again becoming politically and culturally charged, the relationship between media and class remains understudied. This diverse collection draws together prominent and emerging media scholars to offer readers a much-needed orientation within the wider categories of media, class, and politics—in Britain, America, and beyond. Case studies address media representations and media participation in a variety of platforms, with attention to contemporary culture: from celetoids to selfies, Downton Abbey to Duck Dynasty, and royals to reality TV. These scholarly but accessible accounts draw on both theory and empirical research to demonstrate how different media navigate and negotiate, caricature and essentialize, or contain and regulate class.
