| Publisher Description: Examining the videos and careers of female musicians Pat Benatar, Cyndi Lauper, Tina Turner, and Madonna, and their appeal to female audiences, this book challenges the idea that MTV presents only negative and sexist images of women. It shows that these artists have appropriated music video as a vehicle of feminist expression. |
