Are there ' TV tropes ' that are about media communications and stylings and not only about fictional content?

For instance, the kinds of jokes that Stephen Colbert makes on The Late Show on CBS? Or the way news anchors communicate, or the way media business decisions are made in regards to television shows.

Maybe we could call these metacommunications.

The story We Tell, the patterns and tools and structures we use to tell it.

Tvtropes covers nonfiction also even though there's more coverage of fiction on the site
