monoculture

For decades, popular media was defined by "broadcasting." A few major networks or studios decided what the world watched, creating a where everyone saw the same films, heard the same radio hits, and read the same headlines.

At the University of the Philippines Diliman, the study of entertainment content and popular media goes beyond passive consumption. Through the College of Mass Communication (CMC) and programs like Broadcast Communication and Film, UPD critically examines how mainstream media shapes public opinion, identity, and culture in the Philippine context. Students and faculty analyze trends from blockbuster Filipino cinema, viral digital series, and K-drama fandoms to political satire on social media platforms like TikTok and X (formerly Twitter). Rather than dismissing pop culture as frivolous, UPD positions entertainment content as a vital site of resistance, negotiation, and nation-building. By deconstructing narratives in popular media—from rom-com tropes to reality TV ethics—UPD researchers reveal how entertainment reflects and influences class struggles, gender norms, and postcolonial realities in the Philippines.
