Black And White In Colour: Africa's History On Screen
This book did a good job of helping explain (or start to explain) random stuff like Canada's media market, Canadian celebrity culture, the average MTV/MuchMusic schedule in the halcyon years, and how international channels operate. I say start to explain because of the length of the book. I don't blame the author, as there probably isn't that much analysis or research on MuchMusic, as written in the book.
