Which of the theories of mass communication holds the greatest potential of leading to a Grand Theory?

Question

Our professor asks us to also weave a definition of a grand theory into our answer. He also says to discuss the role of theory in mass communication graduate education and research. We should support our answers with examples. Does anyone have any ideas?

Answer 1

There are a number of discussions of grand theory pertaining to communications in this work "Mass Communication and Theory".

Personally, your professor sounds like he's smoked too much dope.
