Beschreibung:
Tatjana Neubauer (Dr. phil.), born in 1989, has been teaching and researching as a doctoral student at Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz, Germersheim campus, since 2016 and until the successful completion of her PhD in September 2021. Her main research interests lie in (North) American Studies, Media Studies, and Native American Studies.
F. Scott Fitzgerald once said: »Show me a hero, and I'll write you a tragedy.« In the 1990s, nobody fell deeper than O.J. Simpson. Once considered a national treasure, the athlete was accused of brutally slaying his ex-wife Nicole Brown and her friend Ronald Goldman on June 12, 1994. Within days, the media and public developed an unprecedented obsession with the story, turning a murder investigation and trial into a sensationalized reality show. Tatjana Neubauer examines the mediatization, deliberate manipulation, and the simplification of popular criminal trials for profit on television. She demonstrates that TV conflated legal proceedings into entertainment programming by commodifying events, people, and places.
