April 2016 - DePauw Professor Jeff McCall Discusses Finale of 'American Idol' & Show's Impact
2 years ago
22
Part of the success of 'American Idol', which ends a highly successful 15-year run on network television, is that "the average viewer had a fascination that everyday people could get a shot at being on television," according to Jeff McCall. The media studies professor from DePauw University made that comment the morning of April 7, 2016 -- the day of the 'Idol' finale -- on CBC (the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation), which interviewed Dr. McCall for about seven minutes to talk about Idol and its impact on television and popular culture.
