Abstract (english)
In the wake of a participant’s suicide this past year, the cancellation of The Jeremy Kyle Show, a British daytime television mainstay, has renewed debates in the UK regarding how the poor are presented in the media. This paper looks to position the popular programme within the wider context of economic Austerity, discussing the ideological ramifications of the show’s portrayal of its guests within this milieu. Played out before a live and televised audience, the show set itself as a public stage where personal matters are resolved, with the dialogue between the guests’ intimate lives and external judgement forming the content of the programme. As such, the programme relied on the poor and vulnerable to populate its schedule, providing them DNA profiling tests and specialised medical care beyond their means in exchange for their participation. The paper discusses the programme’s content as a means of delineating social boundaries, specifically demonising Britain’s working-class. Jeremy Kyle, as eponymous host, maintained a narrow Neoliberal worldview while acting as a supreme moral arbiter over the lives of his guests. Being portrayed/Identifying himself as/Positioning himself as the sole authority in the show, he proselytised a message of puritanical individualism that was notleft unchecked but was in turn validated by his live audience. The paper thus analyses the programme’s position as a constructor of the ‘legitimate’ public: othering the lumpenproletariat in a spectacle that reminds its viewership of the consequent shame that comes from a failure to adjust to the Austerity agenda.
