I'd love to be part of this starter pack. I'm currently finishing a book for Routledge on "Teaching Media Literacy Using Graphic Novels: Cross-Curricular Lessons for a Post-Truth, AI World." I explore why the GN format offers a way forward for deconstructing the ever-evolving media landscape.
Old fashioned public airwaves advocate here. Made documentary Broadcast Blues, forced Entercom to give up its license to a 50k watt radio license in Sacto, got Alex Jones thrown off lots of radio stations, contributed to public files being online.

I'm a media critic (and later a media literacy educator) working at the intersections of media, gender, race, and power since the 90s. Not an academic but my first book, Reality Bites Back, has been used in classrooms since 2010. My next, a critical media literacy graphic novel, is out next year.
it depends so much on what you mean by media theory … so much of “theory” in film studies is really intelectual history, which so many of us do while also being on the film history list

My article on radio as critical pedagogy for the European Journal of Cultural Studies might be of wider interest:
