AB This paper deals with the treatment of the mass media in a selection of short stories written by the American postmodernist author David Foster Wallace. The first section of the paper gives us a brief theoretical background about the genre of the short story in American literature, the life and works of the author, and the evolution of the mass media. Then, the second section focuses on an article written by the author which deals with television and its relation with American literature. Finally, the last three sections present the analysis of three of the most important mass media, which are television, advertising and press, in a selection of short stories extracted from two of David Foster Wallace’s collections.
