Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this qualitative study is to analyze the dominant propaganda strategies that were reflected in an hour-long program of Radio Martì, a broadcast produced on behalf of Voice of America in the United States and aired to Cuba. Through propaganda techniques, a content analysis was used to determine which strategies were present in the commentator's coverage of the program, El Dia de la Prensa Libre on May 3rd, 2012. This study uncovered propaganda strategies, including testimonials, flag-waving, glittering generalities, appeal to prejudice, image manipulation, over-simplicity, assertion, and third party technique, that were utilized in an effort to present nuanced perspectives on the broadcasts transmitted on Radio Martì. The use of these strategies demonstrates that the program continues to use propaganda when broadcasting to Cuba after the conflict of interest incident with the United States and Radio Martì in 2006. Beyond the analysis of this broadcast, the results of this study cannot be generalized, but they can be viewed as an exemplar of the broadcast's stance on propaganda messages to Cuba on behalf of American journalists.

Find full textAbstract:
With the arrival of the Internet and the new digital media environment, access to allegedly reliable news became increasingly easy and quick. Herman and Chomsky’s Propaganda Model (PM), created back in 1988, tried to explain how US corporate mass media is used as a propaganda instrument to manufacture the public’s consent and how news is filtered before being published. Given the different geopolitical and cultural contexts of today’s world, it has been doubted whether this Model is still applicable. This study aims to show how this theory could still be relevant in the 21st century and how it can be related to a society permeated by the Internet. Firstly, an overview of the above-mentioned Propaganda Model, its origins, and its five filters will be given. Secondly, it will be argued how the PM could still be relevant in today’s world, presenting retrospectively how it could be revisited to adjust to the modern world. It will also be discussed whether this Model could be applied not only to the US but also to other countries. Finally, the role of traditional media in the Internet age and the concept of the filter bubble will be presented, together with the emergence of alternative media. To conclude, a retrospective on how social networks and modern media are not able to escape the bias exposed by the Model, which is thus still relevant.

Full textAbstract:
This dissertation concerns the extent to which the propaganda model advanced by Noam Chomsky and Edward Herman in their Manufacturing Consent: The Political Economy of the Mass Media is still applicable to the current media ecosystem, where both legacy and new media converge, especially given the emergence of global democratic resistance both to the excesses of neoliberalism in general, and to the problems associated with shale gas mining through hydraulic fracturing (or fracking) in particular. In this regard, firstly, the tensions between the views of seminal propaganda theorists and of critical theorists opposed to propaganda will be thematized in relation to Chomsky and Herman’s propaganda model, through which they sought to account for the negative impact of neoliberalism on journalistic freedom. Secondly, the primary features of neoliberalism will be considered in relation to the advent of the Internet, which has helped spread laissez-faire capitalism globally, both through integrating financial markets and augmenting consumerism, and through facilitating new practises of consent engineering via digital forms of censorship and surveillance. Thirdly, the correlative emergence around the world of digital democratic resistance on the part of new social movements and through both new and legacy media means, to the excesses of neoliberalism in general, will be investigated. Fourthly, the corporate underpinning of fracking in the United States will be explored, along with the media strategy by which anti-fracking groups – following Vera Scroggins’s activism – have contested government endorsement of such resource extraction. Fifthly, the resonances/dissonances between the media strategies of the American anti-fracking movement and the South African anti-fracking movement – most notably the Treasure the Karoo Action Group (TKAG) – along with the different contexts out of which they emerged and their respective efficacy, will be examined. Finally, some potential deficits in the TKAG media strategy will be identified, and appropriate recommendations will be made.

Full textAbstract:
A sophisticated and high tech form of state-to-foreign population diplomacy based on the use of the latest communication technologies has developed rapidly in recent years and has acquired an increasingly important position within a significant number of foreign affairs systems. Pioneered by the heavyweights of the international stage, the phenomenon has spread rapidly to secondary powers and is progressively extending itself to varying degrees to all states around the globe. This thesis grapples with the enigma raised by the brisk re-emergence of this foreign policy concentration by attempting to understand the reasons behind both the quantitative increase in public diplomacy activities and the qualitative evolution of these activities in terms of planning, organisation and implementation. The first argument that this thesis broaches is that the sudden growth of public diplomacy is the result of the shift to a new phase of the information revolution (necessary enabling force) which has been amplified by contingent factors: the explosion of global terrorism (accelerator) and the perception of leaders and foreign policy makers of this new environment (prism). The second argument is that, beyond quantitative growth, the new operational context born of the advent of the global information society provoked a qualitative evolution of the public diplomacy inherited from the Cold War towards what is today mass diplomacy. The result is the appearance of a market driven diplomacy employing persuasive techniques borrowed from the world of public relations and marketing. The new diplomacy is an entrepreneurial diplomacy that limits governmental leadership to a necessary minimum and encourages the participation of private and foreign sub-contractors. It is also a cyber-space diplomacy equipped with new diplomatic instruments such as high-resolution satellite imagery, high-speed networks, digital broadcasting and other marvels of the late twentieth cen

As revistas de históriias em quadrinhos mangá oriundas do Japão, publicadas e popularizadas no Brasil , são um meio de comunicação de massa que expressam um sistema de valores e um modo de vida que são considerados como típicos e ideais dentro do arcabouço sócio-cul tural japonês, e tem atraído um número cada vez maior de leitores e admiradores, unindo em torno de si indivíduos com as mais diversas origens culturais que o Brasil oferece. Como todo meio de comunicação de massa, as revistas mangá também são ferramentas de propaganda ideológica capazes de influenciar seus leitores em âmbitos que vão desde os processos de formação de suas identidades, passam pela configuração de seus sistemas de valores, afetam seus entendimentos acerca da realidade, chegando até a influenciar o estabelecimento dos modos de vida que esses indivíduos apresentam e ambicionam. Tendo isso em mente, este estudo se dedicou a responder , primeiramente, se a leitura dessas revistas efetivamente exerce influência sobre seus leitores, verificando em seguida o resultado dessa influência. Para tal, realizou-se um levantamento empírico quantitativo que utilizou elementos das teorias da Espiral Dinâmica e da Emergência Cíclica para comparar leitores e não-leitores dessas revistas em relação aos estágios de consciência e aos sistemas de valores e modos de vida ideal que esses grupos apresentam. Os resultados demonstram que realmente esses grupos diferem e que embora essas diferenças se apresentem de um modo divergente em relação ao que se esperava, elas se devem em grande parte à leitura das revistas mangá.The manga magazines from Japan, published and popularized in Brazil, are a mass communication media that express in its pages a system of values and a way of life that are considered by scholars of Japanese culture as typical and ideals within their social and cultural framework, and are attracting an increasing number of readers and admirers, uniting people from the most diverse cultural backgrounds that Brazil offers. As a mass communication media, the manga magazines are also tools of propaganda capable of an influence that ranges from the processes of formation of the individuals identities, passes through the configuration of their values systems, affects their perceptions and understanding about the reality of the world in which they live, and comes up to influence the establishment of the ways of life that these individuals have as reals and ideals. Considering this, the present research, at first, gives some answers about the reading of these magazines, showing if they actually exerts some influence on its readers, for after this, check the result of that influence. To this end, this study made use of a quantitative empirical survey that used elements of the Spiral Dynamics Theory and of the Emergent Cyclical Levels of Existence Theory for compare non- readers and reader s of these magazines by the value systems and ideals ways of life that these groups have. The results showed that, as expected, these two groups are different, and that these differences, although they are presented in a manner divergent on what was expected, occurs as a result of the reading of manga magazines.

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to analyse and explain the organization of Greek broadcasting, and particularly its relationship to the state and politics. The study begins with the introduction of state-owned radio in 1936 and ends with the abolition of the state monopoly and the introduction of private local radio by a Socialist government in 1987. Through a mainly chronological structure the study examines the development of Greek radio and television set against major developments in the sphere of politics from the inter-war period until the late 1980s. These developments include the establishment of a quasi-fascist dictatorship in 1936, the Right-Left cleavage of the 1940s and the nature of parliamentary regime which was established as a result of the Communist defeat in the civil war (1946-1949). Subsequently, the study deals with the imposition of the dictatorial regime in 1967 and examines the contradictions which led to its eventual downfall in 1974. Finally, the thesis covers the transition of the country to democracy, the nature of the democratic regime, the party system and the major aspects of policy of both the Conservative governments (1974-1981) and the Socialists (1981-1987). Placed within the framework of the debate about the role of broadcasting in liberal democracies, the thesis examines the applicability of two antithetical models, the 'fourth estate' and the 'dominance' models to the Greek broadcasting system from 1936 to 1987. Neither is found to be satisfactory. Our study of government-broadcasting relations since the introduction of radio demonstrates that the broadcast media have always been subordinate to partisan political control and that neither the editorial autonomy nor the political independence of Greek broadcasters, on which the 'fourth estate' model is based, have ever been safeguarded by Greek politicians. The 'dominance' model, on the other hand, to the extent that it considers the mass media as an instrument of the dominant classes fails to describe accurately the role of Greek broadcasting institutions and of the state which controls them within Greek society. Due to the uneven and belated industrial development of the country, the state has acquired a dominant position in social and economic life by distributing resources and safeguarding the vital Interests of various social groups. Political parties have always relied on the mechanisms of the state to consolidate their power. Broadcasting institutions have therefore been used by those holding executive power as a legitimating mechanism of their policies. Preoccupied as they were with the political output of radio and television, Greek politicians never pursued the development of a public service ethos In Greek broadcasting.

Full textAbstract:
The aim of this thesis is to create a comprehensive view on questions of development and influence of media on society and related formation and processing of information. This thesis should also enable the reader easier understanding and orientation in this topic. For that reason the thesis is divided into four main parts. The first section describes what is information, and the relation among data, information and knowledge. The second part is devoted to development and influence of information and communication technologies. It describes ways which enabled and enable to deliver information to its recipient and also related changes brought by these technologies. In the next chapter there is desribed what influences our relations within the framework of single nations and how media help to their convergency and linking. And the last part of this thesis includes an analysis of possible use and misuse when affecting broad masses of people.

Enquanto os estudos internacionais têm demonstrado uma grande preocupação em pesquisar a capacidade dos candidatos de influenciar a formação da agenda dos meios de comunicação de massa em épocas eleitorais, no Brasil a agenda das candidaturas não foi incorporada aos trabalhos acadêmicos de mídia e eleições. Neste estudo tive como objetivo avaliar a importância da agenda da propaganda dos candidatos para a formação da agenda da cobertura dos telejornais na eleição presidencial de 2002, bem como a relevância do programa de governo do PT para a elaboração da agenda da propaganda de seu candidato, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, nessa mesma eleição. Os dados mostraram que as candidaturas Lula e Serra conseguiram transferir para suas coberturas eleitorais do Jornal Nacional e Jornal da Record a ênfase dos assuntos discutidos em suas propagandas de televisão. Demonstraram também que o PT obteve êxito em transmitir para a propaganda de televisão da candidatura Lula a saliência da pauta discutida em sua plataforma. Com base nesses resultados, conclui que os candidatos influenciaram a agenda dos telejornais e que o PT, em particular, também cumpriu a função de agenda-setting, agendando os assuntos da propaganda da candidatura Lula na televisão.While the international studies have shown a great concern with the study of the candidate\'s capacity to influence the formation of the mass media agenda during the electoral campaign period, in Brazil, the candidate\'s agenda has not been included in the academic studies of media and elections. In this study, my objective was to evaluate the candidates importance for the formation of the TV news coverage agenda on the presidential election in 2002, as well as the relevance of the PT for the elaboration of the advertising his candidate, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, in that same election. The data showed that both Lula and Serra succeeded in transferring to their electoral coverings of the \"Jornal Nacional\" and \"Jornal da Record\" the themes and issues discussed in their TV ads. The data also showed that the PT had success in transmitting to Lula\'s TV ads the salient themes presented by the party\'s program. The evidence I provided allowed me to conclude that the candidates influenced the new\'s agenda and that the PT, in particular, also fulfilled the function of agenda setting, by effectively influencing the content of its candidate\'s campaign on TV.

Essa dissertação sob o título: “As Imagens do Feminino Apresentadas pela Mídia: um estudo exploratório da Revista Cláudia entre o passado e o presente” desenvolve uma pesquisa, a partir dos anúncios de roupas íntimas femininas, em duas edições da Revista Cláudia, respectivamente nas décadas de 1966 e 2012. Observou-se, considerando os recursos midiáticos em cada edição, que a mulher apropriou-se da linguagem da sua imagem, para impor-se e afirmar-se como mulher, diante dos contextos históricos aqui observados. Ela fez-se ouvida não somente com o seu corpo exposto à sensualidade, mas principalmente com suas atitudes frente aos diversos impasses criados pelas imposições do consumismo. Desta forma, a feminilidade se preserva, apesar de a forma de vida capitalista criar a necessidade do consumismo e satisfazer dessa necessidade, e ainda, essa mesma realidade capitalista impõe padrões de cultura capazes de tornar real um mundo feito de aparências. Se o mundo do comércio estabelece a uniformização das pessoas pela marca, para que todos pertençam à mesma tribo: classe social, ideologia, cultura; em contraposição, a mulher aparece com a investidura do universo da sua individualidade preservada. Isso fica evidente quando se constata o desempenho da mulher em todos os setores da vida, desde o campo da intelectualidade até nos diversos setores da vida profissional.
This thesis, under the title: "The Images of Women Presented by Media: an exploratory study of Claudia Magazine between the past and the present", develops a research of women's underwear advertisements in two editions of magazine Claudia, respectively in decades of 1966 and 2012. It was observed, considering media resources in each edition, that women have appropriated the language of their image, to impose and assert themselves as women before the historical contexts observed here. Women have made themselves heard not only through body exposition to sensuality, but mostly with their attitudes towards various difficult situations created by consumerism impositions. In that way, the femininity is preserved, although the capitalist way of life create the need of consumerism and satisfy itself with this need, and further, impose culture’s patterns capable of turning the real world in a world made of appearances. If the world trade establishes the standardization of people by brands, this create an illusion that everybody belongs to the same tribe: social class, ideology, culture; in contrast, woman appears with her individuality preserved by the investiture of universe. This is evident when one considers the performance of woman in all parts of life, since the intellectuality field until many sectors of professional life.

Women still hold the majority in the pursuit of the aesthetic ideal. The imposition of standards of beauty is a social problem in which maximizes the prejudice and discrimination of those who do not fit these parameters. The standards of beauty and fashion are often unreal, because they suggest a beauty that women are unable to achieve naturally. The standards are unreal because they are created or modified by technologies, computer graphics programs, etcetera. In the same way that discourses are situated and constructed socio-historically, the standards of beauty are as well, so time has a great influence in changing these patterns. Therefore, because there is no concept of absolute and universal beauty, it submits to the current culture and society. The "different body", the one that does not fit into the imposed standards, is rarely portrayed in advertising. Hence, the company Unilever, which owns the Dove brand, used the "different body" as a marketing strategy in one of its advertising campaigns. Therefore, this paper seeks to examine: how the "different body" was portrayed in such campaign, as it used ordinary women, and also featured narratives of these models. Understanding that advertising as a powerful mass media can promote models of identification and behavior, and may strengthen or break stereotypes, this work seeks to analyze: how "different body" was portrayed in such publicity, both in verbal and imagistic mode; which potentially ideological meanings articulated from the discourses; and if the discourses reinforce or negate the current aesthetic standards. Our analytical work is grounded in two theories: Textual analysis for social research by Norman Fairclough (2003) and the Visual Grammar by Kress and van Leeuwen (1996), which assisted in textual and multimodal analysis, respectively. We emphasize that the purpose of this paper is a critical analysis that aims to encourage reading and critical interpretation of discourses, especially from the media, since the discourses are invested with ideologies. We concluded in the advertisements analyzed, the images and narratives were used as strategies to sell their products, and the debate initially proposed by Dove had the intention to break stereotypes, yet in fact did not succeed in the end. The "different body" was portrayed as the imperfect body, as inverse to the ideal body.
A imposição de padrões de beleza é um problema social que potencializa o preconceito e a discriminação daqueles que não se enquadram nesses parâmetros. Os padrões de moda e beleza vigentes são muitas vezes irreais, pois propõem uma beleza que as mulheres não conseguem atingir naturalmente, pois são criados ou modificados por tecnologias, programas de computação gráfica, etc. Da mesma maneira que os discursos são situados e construídos sócio-historicamente, os padrões de beleza também o são. Dessa forma, tempo e época exercem grande influência na mudança desses padrões. Portanto, não existe conceito de beleza absoluto e universal, pois submete-se à cultura e à sociedade envolvida. O corpo diferente , aquele que foge dos padrões impostos, raramente é retratado no cenário publicitário. Por isso, a empresa de cosméticos e de produtos de higiene pessoal Unilever, detentora da marca Dove, utilizou tal tipo de corpo como estratégia em uma de suas campanhas publicitárias. A campanha intitulada Dove Real Beleza iniciou-se em 2004, não somente em mídias virtuais, mas também impressa (revistas semanais). Entendendo que a publicidade é uma mídia de massa poderosa capaz de promover modelos de identificação e de comportamento, que pode reforçar ou quebrar estereótipos, esse trabalho busca analisar: como o corpo diferente foi retratado na referida publicidade, tanto no modo verbal quanto imagético e quais os sentidos potencialmente ideológicos são articulados nos discursos, e se esses reforçam ou refutam os padrões estéticos vigentes. Nesse intento, nosso trabalho de análise é pautado nas teorias: Análise de Discurso Textualmente Orientada de Norman Fairclough (2003) e na Gramática do Design Visual de Kress e van Leeuwen (2006 [1996]), que auxiliaram na análise textual e multimodal, respectivamente. A proposta deste trabalho é incentivar a leitura e interpretação crítica dos discursos, principalmente os midiáticos, já que estes são altamente ideológicos. Percebeu-se que o debate inicialmente proposto pela Dove para quebra de estereótipos de fato não ocorre, pois há discursos normatizadores que determinam que os sujeitos precisam cuidar de si, cuidar do corpo, para se encaixarem nos padrões. O corpo diferente foi retratado ainda como antônimo ao corpo ideal.

Previous issue date: 2010Trata-se de um estudo que analisa as ações do Órgão Regulador daPropaganda de Medicamentos no período de 2005 a 2009. A propaganda é um instrumento de promoção da comercialização de medicamentos e de acordo com a própria Agência Nacional de Vigilância Sanitária (ANVISA) e estudos acadêmicos 90 por cento das peças publicitárias exibidas contêm irregularidades. O setor regulado, representado pelas agências de publicidade, indústria e comércio varejista farmacêutico, atua como um forte agente influenciador sobreas normas. Isso ocorre em detrimento do que é preconizado como uso racionale da Política Nacional de Medicamentos. O trabalho analisa os debates ocorridos na Câmara Setorial de Propaganda de Produtos Sujeitos à Vigilância Sanitária da ANVISA, as proposições dos setores envolvidos na área da propaganda de medicamentos, informações veiculadas pela própria Agência e estudos acadêmicos sobre o setor. O trabalho também analisa as estratégias empregadas pela ANVISA para fiscalização e monitoração do setor, bem como a transparência na construção da Resolução de Diretoria Colegiada (RDC) 96/2008. Durante os quatro anos de discussão da regulação de propaganda de medicamentos no país, a nova RDC 96/2008, assim como as demais ações da ANVISA não conseguiram registrar avanços. Portanto, é preciso que se aprofunde ainda mais o debate no sentido de um maior controle da propaganda de medicamentos no país.
This is a study that examines the actions of the Regulatory Agency of Drug Advertising in the period 2005 to 2009. The propaganda is an instrument of promotion of the marketing of medicines and in agreement with the Brazilian’s National Health Surveillance Agency (ANVISA) itself and academic studies 90 % of the publicity pretentious pieces contain irregularities. The regulated sector represented by the agencies of publicity, industry and retail pharmaceutical commerce, influence like a strong Influencer agent over the standards. That takes place to the detriment of what it is extolled like rational use and of the National Politics of Medicines. The work analyses the discussions occurred in the Chamber Setorial of Propaganda of Products Subject to the Sanitary Vigilance of the ANVISA, the propositions of the sectors wrapped in the area of medicines propaganda, informations conveyed by the Agency itself and academic studies on the sector. The work also analyses the strategies employed by the ANVISA for inspection and monitoring of sector, as well as the transparency in the construction of the RDC 96/2008. During the four years of discussion on the regulation of drug advertising in the country, the new Anvisa’s Resolution 96/2008, as well as other actions ANVISA failed to record progress. Thus, it is necessary to deepen further the debate to greater control of drug advertising in the country.

L’un des sujets historiques latino-américains les plus abordés par la littérature scientifique, est celui de la révolution cubaine de 1959. Les réformes sociales, la projection internationale du nouveau régime havanais, la répression politique intérieure, l’opposition des États-Unis ont entraîné un vaste débat politique et intellectuel. Pour montrer l’échec ou la réussite de la nouvelle politique menée, les auteurs ont tenté de nombreuses comparaisons avec le gouvernement de Fulgencio Batista sans, pour autant, étudier attentivement ses mécanismes, ses contradictions internes, ses différences et ses similitudes avec les régimes voisins. De faux documents ont même été produits pour justifier la vision de l’un ou l’autre des camps.57 ans après l’entrée des révolutionnaires à La Havane, il convient de s’interroger sur ce que fut le régime du 10 mars. L’objet de cette thèse estde réussir à comprendre, à partir du plus large corpus possible et à travers la relation entre l’État et les médias, quelle était la nature du gouvernement de Fulgencio Batista. Il s’agit de replacer au centre de la compréhension les actions des acteurs politiques et médiatiquesOne of the Latin American historical subjects most approached by scientific literature is the Cuban Revolution of 1959. Social reforms, the international projection of the new Havanese regime, internal political repression, led to extensive political and intellectual debate. In order to show the failure or the success of the new policy, the authors have attempted many comparisons with the government of Fulgencio Batista without, however, carefully examining its mechanisms, internal contradictions, differences and similarities with neighboring regimes. False documents were even produced to justify the vision of one or the other of the camps.57 years after the revolutionaries entered Havana, it is necessary to question what the regime of March 10 was. The aim of this thesis is to understand the nature of the government of Fulgencio Batista through the relationship between the state and the media and to reposition it in the center of the understanding of the period the actions of political and media actors

This study investigates how pregnant women and mothers have been represented in advertisements in the magazines Crescer and Pais e Filhos. It deals with a discussion on how advertising constructs the imaginary of pregnancy and motherhood. Our objectives were to analyze the advertising signs used to represent, translate and sensitize pregnant women and contemporary mothers. To do this, we analyzed their verbal and visual languages in an effort to identify common elements and characteristics; in other words, images, messages, and sales appeals, as well as ideals, values, and cultural symptoms which materialize in advertisements and provide symbolic exchanges with their consumer audience. Our research corpus consisted of advertisements, published in Brazil (from 2006 to 2009) in the magazines Crescer and Pais e Filhos (top publications in the sector, according to subscription and market share data). The dissertation begins with a report on the first stage of the research, in which qualitative methodology was applied to carry out three group discussions with pregnant women and mothers, who were readers and potential readers of the magazines studied, in order to survey opinions regarding how these women felt as mothers and pregnant women and investigate how they perceived the advertisements published in these magazines. Next a semiotic analysis of the advertisements is presented, based on Peircean semiotics (Peirce and Santaella), with contributions from Psychoanalysis (Freud and Lacan). Finally, the dissertation points to interpretations resulting from field study in dialogue with semiotic analysis

Trata-se de um estudo dos modos como a publicidade tem construído o imaginário da gravidez e maternidade. Nossos objetivos foram analisar signos publicitários utilizados para representar, traduzir e sensibilizar mulheres grávidas e mães contemporâneas. Para isso, analisamos características das linguagens verbais e visuais, buscando identificar elementos comuns; ou seja, imagens, mensagens, apelos de venda, assim como, ideais, valores e sintomas culturais que se materializam nos anúncios e proporcionam trocas simbólicas com seu público consumidor. Nosso corpus de pesquisa é formado por anúncios publicitários, veiculados no Brasil no período de 2006 a 2009, nas revistas Crescer e Pais e Filhos (principais publicações do setor, segundo dados de circulação paga e participação de mercado). A dissertação inicia-se com o relato da primeira etapa da pesquisa, na qual foi utilizada a metodologia qualitativa para a realização de três discussões em grupo com mulheres grávidas ou mães, leitoras e potenciais leitoras das revistas pesquisadas, para se levantar opiniões acerca de como estas mulheres se sentiam enquanto mães e grávidas e investigar como elas percebiam os anúncios publicitários veiculados nestas revistas; prossegue com a análise semiótica dos anúncios estudados embasada na semiótica peirceana (Peirce e Santaella), contando com contribuições da psicanálise (Freud e Lacan); e tem seu desfecho apontando-se as interpretações resultantes da pesquisa de campo em diálogo com a análise semiótica

Thesis (MPhil)--University of Stellenbosch, 2000.ENGLISH ABSTRACT: Although most journalists and media managers will deny that they are at all biased, few of the communication messages that are daily spread by the mass communication media, are neutral. Media people transfer their own political orientation, also that of the organisation that they work for, to their reports by means of their decisions of what news they will present and how they will present it. From the recent past it has become clear that there is a link between the government of the day and how the news is presented, as perceptions that have been created of certain events, have changed over time. Journalists have certain political convictions, but even if they try to be objective in spite of these, they are often insensitive to the fact that they are used by propagandists, who themselves have a thorough knowledge of the media. Sometimes journalists are knowingly and willingly involved in such attempts, and sometimes against their will. More often they are completely ignorant of the fact that they form part of a propaganda attempt, because they do not realise that they are being manipulated. In order to distinguish between "real" news and propaganda in the form of news, it is essential to have insight into the nature and origin of propaganda, but especially into the techniques that are commonly used. Initially, the word "propaganda" had a positive meaning, but during the First World War the word increasingly obtained a negative connotation. A century later, the word itself had become almost obsolete, except in reference to the information attempts of the opposition. "Own" campaigns are referred to in eufemistic terms such as "news management" and "public diplomacy". However, phenomena of propaganda did not disappear. In fact, with the progress in technology since the end of the nineteenth century, the number of communication channels available for the transfer of messages have multiplied. This created new means of spreading propaganda, especially since the invention of the transistor and later of television. With the changes in and improvements of mass communication media, the nature and extent of propaganda techniques also changed significantly. The techniques became more sophisticated and new methods of manipulation are continuously thought up, so much so that there are currently almost no limit to the ways in which propaganda messages are conveyed. When the uses of these techniques, as they are commonly found in media reports, are studied, it is possible to identify six broad catagories of propaganda. The first category is that where the nature of the contents is obvious, in other words, where no further information is required about an issue or a person in order to recognise the technique as propaganda. The second category represents pieces of propaganda where further information is required in order to recognise the use of the technique, like when somebody tells a lie. Thirdly, there are techniques that can only be recognised after a variety of propaganda pieces have been studied and the relation between the contents have been studied, such as when politicians play for time. The fourth technique is repetition. The fifth category of techniques is based on the nature of the arguments used by the propagandist, whether these are rational or non-rational. The last category is based on the intention of the propagandist, for example whether he wants to create fear or drive a wedge between groups. Knowledge of these different techniques provide a basis according to which journalists and media managers will be able to judge news events in order to determine the propagandistic intention thereof.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Hoewel die meeste joernaliste en mediabestuurders salontken dat hulle enigsins bevooroordeeld is, is min van die kommunikasïeboodskappe wat daagliks deur die massamedia uitgedra word, neutraal. Medialui druk die stempel van hul eie politieke ingesteldheid, maar ook dié van die organisasie waarvoor hulle werk, op hul berigte af deur hul besluite oor watter nuus hulle gaan aanbied en hoe hulle dit gaan aanbied. Uit die onlangse verlede is dit duidelik dat daar 'n verband is tussen die regering van die dag en hoe die nuus aangebied word, aangesien persepsies wat oor gebeure geskep is, met verloop van tyd verander het. Joernaliste het sekere politieke oortuigings, maar al probeer hulle ten spyte daarvan objektief wees, is hulle dikwels onsensitief daarvoor dat hulle deur propagandiste, wat self 'n grondige kennis van die werking van die media het, gebruik word. Soms word joernaliste met hulle medewete en goedkeuring by sulke pogings betrek, en soms teen hulle sin. Meer dikwels vorm hulle egter onbewustelik deel van 'n belangegroep se propagandapoging, omdat hulle nie besef dat hulle gemanipuleer word nie. Om in staat te wees om "regte" nuus te onderskei van propaganda in die vorm van nuus, is dit noodsaaklik om insig te hê in die aard en oorsprong van propaganda, maar veral in die tegnieke wat algemeen gebruik word. Die woord "propaganda" het aanvanklik 'n positiewe betekenis gehad, maar tydens die Eerste Wêreldoorlog het dit toenemend 'n negatiewe konnotasie gekry. In Eeu later het die woord self grootliks in onbruik verval, behalwe waar daar na die opposisie se inligtingspogings verwys is. "Eie" veldtogte word in eufemistiese terme na verwys as "nuusbestuur" en "openbare diplomasie". Ten spyte hiervan het die verskynsel van propaganda nie verdwyn nie. In teendeel, met die vooruitgang in tegnologie sedert die einde van die negentiende eeu, het die kommunikasiekanale wat vir die oordrag van die boodskap beskikbaar was, veelvuldig toegeneem. Dit het nuwe moontlikhede van propagandavoering daargestel, veral sedert die uitvinding van die transistor en later ook televisie. Met die verandering en verbetering van massakommunikasiemedia het die aard en omvang van propagandategnieke ook merkbaar verander. Die tegnieke het meer gesofistikeerd geraak en nuwe metodes van manipulasie word voortdurend bedink, sodat daar vandag feitlik geen perke is aan die maniere waarop propaganda- boodskappe uitgedra word nie. Wanneer die gebruik van dié tegnieke, soos dit algemeen in mediaberigte voorkom, bestudeer word, is dit moontlik om ses breë kategorieë van propaganda te identifiseer. Die eerste kategorie is dié waar die aard van die inhoud vanself spreek, met ander woorde, waar geen verdere inligting oor 'n saak of persoon nodig is om 'n tegniek as propaganda te eien nie. Die tweede kategorie verteenwoordig propagandastukke waar bykomende inligting nodig is om die tegniek uit te ken, soos wanneer 'n leuen vertel word. Derdens is daar tegnieke wat slegs herken kan word nadat verskeie propagandastukke bestudeer is en die inhoud daarvan met mekaar in verband gebring is, soos wanneer politici vir tyd speel. Vierdens word daar van herhaling gebruik gemaak. Die vyfde kategorie van tegnieke is gegrond is op die aard van die argumente wat die propagandis gebruik, of dit byvoorbeeld rasioneel of nie-rasioneel is. Die laaste kategorie sluit tegnieke in wat gegrond is op die bedoeling van die propagandis, of hy byvoorbeeld vrees wil inboesem of groepe teen mekaar wilopmaak. Kennis van hierdie verskillende tegnieke bied 'n grondslag waarvolgens joernaliste en mediabestuurders nuusgebeure kan beoordeel ten einde die propaganda-bedoeling daarvan te bepaal.

Full textAbstract:
The mass media nowadays hold a high position in the educational world, / and have a strong influence over societies. They influence and shape people's thoughts and behaviour. They have been used for a long time in many western countries in drug prevention campaigns, both successfully and unsuccessfully, Drug abuse has recently become a serious problem in Saudi Arabia . At first the Government tried to tackle the problem only by using the police force and without any publications . However, recently the Government has tried to utilize the advantage of the widespread mass media in teaching the population about the dangers of drug abuse. It started to publish a large amount of information about drugs in the mass media. This study is an evaluative research to assess the Saudi Arabian mass media coverage of the drugs issue in two respects. First is a study of the content of the coverage with regard to its presentation, style, and appeal. The second part concentrates on the effect of that coverage on the target audience: Saudi Arabian pupils, their knowledge and attitudes toward drugs, and whether those publications have benefitted them or not. This study has adopted the information-processing model as a theoretical framework. According to that model the first step in the change process is exposure to the message with a certain level of attention, that will lead to increase in knowledge and that automatically will lead to attitude change. The respondents' exposure to the newspaper messages about drugs has been measured and the result indicates that the majority of the respondents received the messages and are interested, like and believe them. Statistical tests indicate that their knowledge about drugs has been increased. Their attitudes have been assessed and the results indicate that most Saudi Arabian pupils aged from 12 to 25 years old have negative attitudes towards drugs. The results indicate that the newspaper coverage of the drugs issue has had some influence upon the Saudi Arabian pupils' knowledge and their attitudes towards drugs.

Full textAbstract:
Following the events that saw Russia operating in the Ukrainian information space as well as on the ground, concern for hybrid threats and targeted propaganda campaigns has grown in the world and especially in Europe. Allegations of foreign involvement in electoral campaigns within liberal democracies have drawn even more attention to the matter and have hastened plans of action to fight hybrid threats in the European Union and the Eastern Partnership. In theregion, one of the priorities at all levels of governance is to counteract foreign-sourced propaganda campaigns that make use of disinformation. These disinformation-fighting strategies include the strategical use of fact-checking practices. Fact-checkingas a branch of journalism, though, has great potential for being weaponised and used as a vehicle for institutional propaganda, especially when absorbed within the domain of strategic communication. This research offers a case study of EUvsDisinfo, the fact-checking project started by the European External Action Service, to explore its weaknesses as a fact-checking organisation and deconstruct its activity in terms of propaganda analysis. The research employs mixed qualitative methods to show how the project falls short of its ideal role and its function as a fact-checker. Without any value judgement, EUvsDisinfo is exposed as a potential platform for the dissemination of hegemonic narratives or (counter)propaganda in the West and in particular in the European Union. The case study is meant to be a way of developing research on the possible existence of institutional (counter)propaganda in liberal democracies, which is heavily underresearched in present times.

Full textAbstract:
World War II was a time of great changes. Many aspects of American society underwent profound shifts but one predominant part of American culture did not change -- theaccepted roles of women. The government documentary films of World War II reveal attitudes, ideas, and assumptions which not only reinforced traditional roles but also reflected theresistance to gender-role alterations. Women during the war were not only shaped by such cultural messages but many subscribed to them wholeheartedly. The films emphasize twospecific images of women -- Susie Homemaker and Rosie the Riveter -- and also reflect society's image of women as homemakers first and war workers second. This double vision,reflected throughout the documentary films became the catalyst which maintained women in traditional roles and, in turn, rejected attempts to alter those roles in any significant way.This study uses the vehicle of World War II documentaryfilms, utilizing the World War II Historical Film Collection, Bracken Library, Ball State University (the largest collection outside the National Archives), the Office of War Information papers, and extensive secondary research, to investigate the images of women during the war years.Department of History

Full textAbstract:
Media have both direct and indirect influences on policy, and can, at various times, serve as a contributor to policy, a conduit of policy information, and a mirror to the policy process. Although the scholarly literature acknowledges media's role in the policy process, particularly their ability to affect policymakers directly, systematically push policy alternatives, or influence public opinion, the literature often omits a critical role for media: reflecting the policy process. Mass media are the public's largest source of information on policy, yet the volume and tone of media reporting on policy over time, not to mention what we can learn about public policy through media data, are often overlooked. This dissertation examines how we can use media as a tool to better understand the complexity of public policy narratives, framing and change. It also suggests an approach to using media data as a tool to examine the relationships between policy actors and domains. Using automated content analysis of over 25-years of comparative media data, this dissertation consists of three articles: each makes a contribution to the policy literature, namely in the areas of pension policy, immigration policy, and the literature on issue ownership. When taken together, these articles make a broader contribution to the field's understanding of how framing, language and narrative impact the public's understanding of many facets of the policy process. Results demonstrate the value of understanding media's role as a mirror. Additionally, the approach used can be considered a contribution to the methodological toolkit available to policy and political communications scholars to assist them in better understanding the complex relationships between policy and media.Les médias ont des effets directs et indirects sur les politiques. À différents moments, les médias peuvent participer à la création et à la diffusion de politiques, tout comme ils peuvent éclaircir le processus d'élaboration de ces politiques. Le rôle des médias dans ce processus, surtout par rapport à leur capacité d'influer sur les décideurs de façon directe, d'avancer systématiquement des politiques de rechange ou d'influencer l'opinion publique, est reconnu dans la littérature spécialisée. Toutefois, on y aborde rarement un autre rôle fondamental des médias, qui est celui de nous faire comprendre le processus de création de politiques. Pour le public, les médias de masse constituent la principale source d'information sur les politiques, mais le volume et le ton des rapports médiatiques à ce sujet au fil du temps – sans oublier les apprentissages sur les politiques publiques que nous pouvons tirer des données des médias – sont souvent négligés. La présente dissertation traite de l'utilisation des médias comme outils pour approfondir notre compréhension du récit, de la formulation et de la modification des politiques publiques. Elle propose également une approche pour appliquer des données médiatiques à l'examen des rapports entre acteurs politiques et domaines. La présente étude s'appuie sur une analyse de contenu automatisée de données comparatives des médias, couvrant une période de plus de 25 ans. Chacune des trois grandes sections de l'analyse apporte une contribution à la littérature spécialisée, en explorant les politiques en matière de pension et d'immigration, ainsi que la question de l'adhésion aux politiques. Dans son ensemble, l'étude renseigne sur la portée de l'expression, du langage et du récit sur la compréhension populaire des nombreux aspects du processus d'élaboration de politiques. Les résultats de l'analyse soulignent l'importance de comprendre le rôle des médias dans la traduction de ce processus. De plus, les chercheurs qui s'intéressent aux politiques et à la communication politique peuvent utiliser l'approche méthodologique proposée pour étudier les rapports complexes entre les politiques et les médias.

This doctoral submission grew out of a series of long form documentaries that I wrote, produced, and directed between 1993 and the present. The films, which were broadcast on US television's PBS network, all deal with scientific, medical, or environmental issues that developed into prominent national and international controversies. DVDs and scripts of the seven programs are provided along with a detailed overview. The submission is organized as three projects and an overview. 1. Project One (discussed in chapters 3-7) consists of three documentaries: the first about a novel therapy for autism ; the second dealing with the alleged health effects of power line electromagnetic fields ; and the third focused on the silicone breast implant controversy. 2. Project Two (discussed in chapters 8-11) consists of programs on nuclear energy, Gulf War Syndrome, and genetically modified foods. 3. Project Three (discussed in chapters 12-14) features a two-hour special investigation of global warming. 4. The Overview, Communicating Controversy in the Mass Media not only provides an overarching analysis of the portfolio of films and the attendant theoretical issues, but also serves to summarize the works themselves. In the Project sections of the written overview (chapters 3-14), the analysis is interwoven with extracts from the various documentaries. This portfolio and overview tells the evolving story of a body of work at the intersection of documentary, investigative journalism and science. It reveals the journey of one producer who started out with an interest in unpacking complex controversies, but became increasingly fascinated with the psychological and political dimensions of these narratives. Whether a particular controversial belief holds up under scrutiny is undoubtedly important. But there are other fascinating questions: why do people adopt such beliefs in the first place; why do individuals cling to their beliefs in the face of contrary scientific evidence; and what roles do special interests and the media play in amplifying or attenuating the public's hopes and fears? This portfolio and overview, therefore, not only examine a series of high profile controversies, but go further by: explaining the process by which these topics were turned into documentaries; exploring the way humans analyze, perceive and communicate benefits and risks; and critically examining the validity and ethical standing of modern television journalism. This submission represents a significant contribution to knowledge in several ways. First this series of in-depth, original investigations of environmental and health controversies from one producer is unparalleled in broadcast journalism. Second, the overview's analysis synthesizes and extends a wide range of social science research on risk assessment, risk perception and risk communication and applies this research to the featured controversies and the media's role in them. Third, the portfolio and overview reveal how a blend of documentary, journalism and science is an especially effective way of advancing public understanding of and engagement with modern scientific controversies and goes on to suggest some exciting new directions for communicators. Finally, the case studies in this portfolio provide a basis of knowledge about how communicators can effectively use audiovisual media to navigate the world of risks and benefits that permeates many of society's most crucial policy dilemmas.

Full textAbstract:
A main purpose of the thesis is to demonstrate and explain to what extend do media influence foreign policy of a state. Foreign policy is always under internal and external influences and media are considered to be one of those external influences that shape it. Agenda setting theory forms the theoretical frame for this thesis because it takes into consideration not just direct media-government relations but the public as well that inside of this relation serves as some sort of mediator. Besides this theory and the CNN effect as its main 'extension' identifiable victim effect and third person effect as important elements in the process of influence will be introduced as well as influence of visualization. When word 'media' is mentioned in this case it implies to television and newspapers' (both printed and online versions) messages and their influences (not just verbal but the visual ones as well). Examples and case studies in this case focus mostly on the US foreign policy due to its influential role, fact that the US is still the country with the most superlatives inside of international arena and the size, influence and role-model identity of its big media companies (for ex. CNN).

L'europe est en pleine transformation, et elle est en meme temps en train de se construire. Depuis longtemps, il y a une volonte des hommes politiques europeens de voir se realiser une europe unie. Ils ont fait beaucoup d'essais en ce qui concerne la construction europeenne. Aujourd'hui, l'union europeenne se trouve en plein developpement, et plusieurs etats souhaitent devenir membres de l'union. Dans ce processus, les medias jouent un role preponderant, parce qu'ils ont la possibilite de transmettre des messages dans toutes les directions et de creer les conditions necessaires pour faire naitre une conscience europeenne. Cette derniere est importante et doit permettre aux individus de comprendre le sens du processus de la construction europeenne. La conscience permet aux individus d'accepter l'entree de leur pays dans l'union europeenne. Les medias et la conscience europeenne vont ensemble dans la tentative de faire avancer l'union europeenne.

Full textAbstract:
The field of media assistance has grown ever more complex with the inclusion of ‘new media’ networks, channels, tools and practices (such as the Internet, satellite television, mobile devices, social media and citizen journalism) to the media development mix. Adding to the ferment is the increasing convergence between the formerly discrete terrains of ICT for development, media for development and (mass) media development. Much of the discussion regarding the utility and objectives of media development in general and ‘new media’ in particular has been viewed through a modernist and techno-determinist prism which offers a limited ideological view of media development and its objects and consequently, a limited set of communication approaches and strategies. This study contextualises the assumptions of media development historically and critically, with particular focus on new media’s roles and relationships with the media environment, and its objectives democratisation and development. Through the application of literature, theory and various research studies, this thesis establishes a broader view of new media’s role and diverse consequences for media development, democracy and development. The study recommends greater collaboration, contextual research and theorisation of media development and new media as part of mixed media systems and cognisant of the multi-dimensional natures of its objects of democracy and development. One implication is the need for professionalisation of the media development and media assistance sector. In relation to the influences of new media on media use and the media as an institution, it motivates the need to address digital divides and emphasise the sustainability of the practice of journalism.

Full textAbstract:
Diese Arbeit geht der Frage nach, inwiefern die Medien während des Wahl-kampfs über die Wahlprogramme der Parteien berichten. Die Wahlprogramme der Parteien enthalten Informationen darüber, was Parteien nach der Wahl vorhaben. Allerdings lesen wenige Wählerinnen und Wähler Wahlprogramme. Die vergangene Forschung über und mit Wahlprogrammdaten hat bisher angenommen, dass der Inhalt von Wahlprogrammen von den Medien verbreitet wird. Diese Doktorarbeit untersucht diese Annahme empirisch und analysiert, ob und wie Massenmedien während des Wahlkampfs über die Inhalte der Wahlprogramme berichten. Wenn Massenmedien nicht die Inhalte der Wahlprogramme verbreiten würden, hätten Bürgerinnen und Bürger kaum Chancen sich über das programmatische Angebot der Parteien zu informieren. In dieser Arbeit wird das Konzept des Manifesto-Medien-Links entwickelt. Das Konzept bringt Theorien des Parteienwettbewerbs und Theorien der Medienselektion zusammen. Der Manifesto-Medien-Link formuliert drei Bedingungen, welche empirisch getestet werden können. Diese sind: Erstens, Medienberichterstattung und Wahlprogramme müssen zumindest zu einem gewissen Grad dieselben Themen diskutieren. Zweitens, Journalisten müssen Sachfragen mit jenen Parteien verknüpfen, welche diese Themen in ihren Wahlprogrammen stärker betonen als ihre Konkurrenten, um Wählerinnen und Wähler über die Prioritäten der Parteien zu informieren. Drittens, Medien müssen die ideologische Orientierung einer Partei sowie Veränderungen dieser korrekt wiedergeben. Methodisch werden in der Arbeit Wahlprogramm- und Mediendaten kombiniert. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der Manifesto-Medien-Link relativ stabil ist. Außerdem wird gezeigt, dass es nur geringe systematische Verzerrungen zugunsten bestimmter Parteien gibt. Jedoch zeigen sich Unterschiede zwischen Qualitäts- und Boulevardmedien. Die Ergebnisse haben Implikationen für unser Verständnis von politischer Repräsentation und den politischen Wettbewerb.This study analyzes whether media coverage covers messages from parties’ electoral programs (manifestos). Electoral programs contain detailed information on a party’s future policy-making. However, few voters read electoral programs. Still, prior research often assumed that the content of manifestos is known to voters because media disseminate the content of manifestos to voters. This dissertation evaluates this “mediation assumption” empirically, and analyzes whether and how the mass media cover parties’ electoral programs during the electoral campaign. If media coverage did not reflect parties’ electoral programs, citizens would have no chance to base their vote choice on evaluations of those programs. This study introduces the concept of the manifesto-media link in order to describe how media coverage can reflect programmatic offers. The manifesto-media link is formulated as three conditions that can be empirically evaluated and tested in a similar way to the conditions of the responsible party model. These are: First, media must cover similar issues to those that parties cover in their electoral programs. Second, media coverage must link issues with parties that emphasize these issues more than their competitors, in order to inform about the parties’ issue priorities. Third, media must frame parties as left or right in a way that represents how parties emphasize left or right positions in their own manifestos. Methodologically, the study combines secondary content analytical data on media coverage during the electoral campaign with data based on electoral programs. The findings suggest that the manifesto-media link is stable and robust. There is little to no systematic bias in favor of a certain type of party, however there are differences between quality and tabloid media. These findings contribute to our understanding of political representation and the functioning of political competition.

Full textAbstract:
Propaganda conceived for distribution via the medium of the pictorial poster creates artwork that can be productively examined from an aesthetic as well as political perspective. When this artwork is primarily restricted to conflict propaganda from the second decade of the twentieth century, the temporal and contextual considerations assist in focussing the poster’s role as a functional object, not only within a propaganda campaign but also within the wider visual ecology of an era. For the poster to operate as an effective means of propaganda distribution, the propagandist requires composition that incorporates constructs capable of attracting the viewer. In isolating a particular construct, its manifestation has the potential to be utilised as a tool in the unpacking of the imagery; consequently the concept of a propagandist promotion of an alternate reality as a challenge to a current real, and the prospective movement from one to the other, can be literally and figuratively conveyed via its employment as a pictorial trope. In this regard, the construct deemed to represent not only movement, but movement at its most beautiful thereby forming a focus for attraction, is the serpentine curve that in 1745 William Hogarth scribed and titled the line of beauty (Hogarth, 1997 p6). In concentrating on the poster within the wider genre of early twentieth century visual conflict propaganda, and creating new associations with aesthetic and metaphoric concepts pertaining to the line of beauty, this research becomes the articulation of how each contributory element within the artwork’s construction ‘respectively influences the identity and the economies of the other’, thereby providing ‘a model by which to focus and rethink’ these relationships (Ostrow, 2005 p226). The line of beauty serves as both cause and effect of the process by which the relationships are reconsidered, thus provoking an innovative discourse as to the potential impact of the whole upon the visual culture field.

Full textAbstract:
In the area of mass communications and media sociology, connections between theoretical claims and empirical evidence have often been tenuous. Using American national Election Study data gathered by the Center for Political Studies, this dissertation tests a series of hypotheses about the political impact of the mass media. The work profiles the news audience, and examines the public's reliance upon television and newspapers as sources of political information. Next, evidence is brought to bear upon the set of pessimistic assumptions that television news personnel hold about the tastes and capacities of the news audience. Finally, a crucial test is developed in order to evaluate five competing and contradictory hypotheses, all attempting to explain the relationships between the consumption of political materials through the mass media, political interest, and political participation. Of the previously untested claims assessed in the thesis, few were supported by the evidence gathered in research.

Media & CommunicationPh.D.
The purpose of this dissertation is to further clarify the role of mass media for evangelicals in negotiating religious identity. This project uses lived religion, cultural studies, and narrative identity as a framework. Over the course of seven months, I conducted participant observation in an American Baptist congregation, where I observed both their religious and media practices. Additionally, I conducted qualitative interviews with selected key congregants to get a fuller picture of both their media use and their narrative religious identity. I found that narratives about media and media use led participants to certain strategies of distancing and/or integrating media with their religious identity. Various narrative tools, such as maps, symbolic inventories, tropes, and spiritual anchors, were used by participants to juxtapose media with their religious practice. By using these tools, participants sought to gain more moral and religious certainty by using media as both a proxy for self and as a proxy for Others. As moral and religious uncertainty is a characteristic of modernity, I conclude that there may be ramifications for larger media use and moral thought.
