About Cory Barker
I'm an incoming Assistant Professor of Media Studies at Penn State University and formerly an Assistant Professor of Communication at Bradley University. My research focuses on the legacy media industries' experiments with "new" technology in the distribution, exhibition, and promotional realms. My 2022 book, Social TV: Multi-Screen Content & Ephemeral Culture (University Press of Mississippi) won the Outstanding Book Award from the Media Industries Studies Special Interest Group at the Society for Cinema & Media Studies. I've published popular criticism for TV Guide, Complex, and Vox. I also hosted a chat podcast for CBS Interactive's TV.com from 2015-2016 and developed a podcasting course for Bradley students.
Cory Barker is a faculty member in the Donald P. Bellisario College of Communications at Penn State University, where he teaches courses on film, television, and digital culture. Twitter. Newsletter.
