Notes

1.This chapter seeks to connect tabloid culture to the notion of imagined communities as popularized by Benedict Anderson, who argues that nations are “imagined because the members of even the smallest nation will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communion … regardless of the actual inequality and exploitation that may prevail in each, the nation is always conceived as a deep, horizontal comradeship” (1983, pp. 6, 7). Martin Conboy’s Tabloid Britain also connects tabloid culture to Anderson’s concept of nationhood as an imagined community (2006).
