520 "Pretty Liar" explores the rise of language and gender
politics on Lebanese television to tell the untold story
of the co-evolution of Lebanese television and its
audiences and how the civil war of 1975-1991 affected that
co-evolution. The shift in public interest in television
has been widely acknowledged and interpreted within an
institutional context as a victory of the neo-liberal
entrepreneurship of a new, agile brand over the government
inefficiency of Lebanon's national station, Télé Liban.
Yet, the role of the Lebanese Civil War in reshaping
national television and broadcasting in Arab media
following the emergence of the Lebanese Broadcasting
Company in 1985 has been unexplored. Based on empirical
data and grounded in theory by Arab and global researchers,
"Pretty Liar" offers textual analyses of five Lebanese
fictional series, three major and several additional
periodicals, and nine literary works, and provides context
from unscripted interviews with television administrators,
anchors, actors, and freelance contributors, print
journalists, and audience members. Khazaal seeks to offer
new insight into how entertainment television became a
site for politics and political resistance, feminism, and
the cradle for post-war Lebanon due to the shift in
practices and standards of legitimacy. The history of
television in Lebanon is not merely the history of
technology and business, Khazaal argues, but rather the
history of a people and their continuing quest for a
responsive television even during times of civil unrest.
