Media & Comm Investing

Curious if anyone recommends any good books / materials / primers on the media & communications space. Moving to a firm with an industry focus in the area and hoping to read / learn more about the sector from an investor perspective.

I would recommend trying to read as much research as possible - Moffettnathanson, Lightshed, etc. I'd also recommend trying to learn about spectrum / communications technology if your firm works in that. Its a jargon / technical space - so good to have some info going in.

Also, and while this is not strictly investing related, I would recommend reading some of the books regarding the key icons in the media space just learn more about the landscape etc - Cable Cowboy (about John Malone) and Ride of a Lifetime (by Bob Iger) are some good ones to start with.
