Media systems are increasingly shaped by the profit-extraction techniques of hedge funds, asset managers, venture capitalists, private equity firms, and derivatives traders. Derivative Media: How Wall Street Devours Culture (UC Press, 2024) shows how the financial
sector is dismantling the creative capacity of cultural industries by upwardly redistributing wealth, consolidating corporate media, harming creative labor, and restricting our collective media culture. Moreover, financialization is transforming our media
texts into marketplaces of branded transactions. Illustrated with examples drawn from popular culture, Derivative Media offers readers the critical financial literacy necessary to understand the destructive financialization of film, television, and popular
music—and provides a plan to reverse this dire threat to culture.<br>
