The Fall Issue of TEN: Transformational Entertainment News focuses on the theme of Entertaiment, which means “to hold inside.” It’s ironic that this word, from the Latin intertenere, is also a prefix meaning “inside,” because it is precisely the way we are holding in place the familiar forms of entertainment as they undergo a major transformation.
Entertainment may appear in any medium and take many forms. Its ability to cross over media and appeal to different audiences has ensured its longevity. It is perhaps this ability that has allowed it to sustain its popularity even in a time when the economy and job security are at a low point.
