SUMMARY:Fandom\, The Next Generation: Book Talk with Bridget Keyes + Megan Connor
DESCRIPTION:Panel Discussion 10:30 am to 11:30 am\nBook Talk 2:30 pm to 4:00 pm \nImagine a Millennial parent taking their child to see The Last Jedi after their Baby Boomer parents took them to see Return of the Jedi. Picture longtime friends attending a Backstreet Boys reunion concert as adults. For better or worse\, reboots\, remakes\, and revivals are now a standard media industry practice. New modes of distribution and exhibition have further changed fans’ abilities to encounter or re-encounter media texts. Bridget Kies (’18 English PhD) and Megan Connor (’15 English MA) offer one of the first close studies of fan generations\, looking at how these generations are influenced by and\, in turn\, influence technologies\, industry practices\, and social and political changes. \nBridget Kies is assistant professor of Film Studies and Production at Oakland University\, where she also serves on the executive committee for the Women and Gender Studies program. Her research on sexualities and media fandoms has been published in the journals Feminist Media Histories\, Science Fiction Film and Television\, Journal of Popular Romance Studies\, Transformative Works and Cultures\, and Intensities\, as well as several edited collections. With Megan Connor\, she is co-editor of Fandom\, the Next Generation (2022). She has also co-edited issues of Queer Studies in Media and Popular Culture and Participations. She is currently writing a book about the enduring popularity of Murder\, She Wrote. \nMegan Connor received her PhD from Indiana University’s Media School\, where she now serves as research coordinator at the Institute for Communication Research. Her research examines girls’ media\, celebrity\, and fandom. Her dissertation used an archive of teen magazines such as Seventeen and Teen Vogue to explore the construction and promotion of celebrity girlhood in the 2000s as an idealized form of youthful femininity. With Bridget Kies\, Megan is co-editor of Fandom\, the Next Generation (2022). Her work has been published in The Black Girlhood Studies Collection (2019) and the journal Black Camera\, where she also served as managing editor for several years.

SUMMARY:The Rise of Right-Wing Comedy
DESCRIPTION:That’s Not Funny: How the Right Makes Comedy Work for Them argues that it is both an intellectual and politically strategic mistake to assume that comedy has a liberal bias. Right-wing comedy has been hiding in plain sight\, finding its way into mainstream conservative media through figures ranging from Fox News’s Greg Gutfeld to libertarian podcasters like Joe Rogan. \nSelected as a 2022 Best Comedy Book by Vulture\, That’s Not Funny taps interviews with conservative comedians and observations of them inaction. You may find many of these comedians appalling\, some very funny\, and others just plain weird. They are all\, however\, culturally and politically relevant as the American right attempts to seize spaces of comedy and irony previously held firmly by the left. Like this brand of humor or not\, you can’t ignore it. \nNick Marx is Associate Professor of Film and Media Studies in the Department of Communication Studies at Colorado State University.
