Review

"Language Ideologies and Media Discourse is an excellent collection which demonstrates the complex and multilayered ways in which language value is shaped by both media power and media use, and reciprocally, how media power and media use themselves are entangled at every step with the value-laden nature of language. It joins a growing body of work within sociolinguistics, linguistic anthropology, and discourse analysis devoted to prying apart the always and everywhere socially, politically, historically, and culturally-charged nature of language use and language value. Here we see in bold relief, just how language choices, linguistic registers, discursive idioms, and linguistic labels across a range of media (e.g. television, newspapers, radio, Internet, and computer games) have consequences for national, ethnic, and global affiliations, as well as the very tenor of people's affective encounters with media technologies."
