The Thin Blue Line

You are asked to choose ONE of the programme examples discussed in class and to discuss your chosen programme in relation to the following headings: • use of modes of address in relation to its topic, purpose and target audience (what rhetorical techniques/modes of address/documentary modes does it employ? How do these position the spectator/audience and with what effect?); • how do these works fulfil the requirements of a documentary format in the contemporary broadcasting environment? If not, to what extent does their function (eg as ‘entertainment’) detract from their informational capacity? • How does the programme interact with the wider definition of documentary and current affairs programming that we have discussed earlier in class? I’ve chosen “The Thin Blue Line” by Bill Nichols
