500    A wet bank holiday weekend in Clacton: some fights broke 
       out on the beach, huts were damaged and somebody fired a 
       starting pistol.  Hardly a riot, but that was how the 
       media reported it.  Reading the reports, Stan Cohen 
       thought it would be an ideal case study for the newly 
       evolving labelling theory.  Cohen illustrates the 
       distorted media reporting of mods and rockers, the ensuing
       panic and how this amplified the phenomenon itself by 
       giving the kids a "script" to perform in front of the 
       cameras.  In the final section he looks back at the book's
       contribution, and particularly at the concept of moral 
       panic.  This programme will be relevant to those studying,
       crime and deviance, media and culture and research 
       methods.
