Abstract:

The correspondence between trends in the mass media and trends in public opinion has important practical, theoretical, and methodological implications—even if we cannot untangle the causal relationships involved. The present study attempts to clarify empirically the aggregate-level mass media—public opinion connection for one major political issue, the Arab-Israeli conflict. Mass media data came from a content analysis of 867 elite newspaper editorials on the dispute (1972–1982); public opinion data came from the frequently asked Middle East “sympathy” question. Favorability measures for editorials, mass public opinion, and college-educated public opinion were highly intercorrelated, in part as a result of a common time trend. When this time trend was partialled out, significant relationships remained between editorial opinion and public opinion. In addition, events heavily covered in mass media tended to crystallize opinion among the college educated but not among the mass public.

Abstract:

The rapid development of new technologies and their impressive communication capacity has fundamentally changed modern democracy by providing easy and universal access to information, as well as increasing participation and accessibility of political involvement tools. One of the electoral participation tools is e-voting which has been used in only a few countries. The main aim of the paper is to explore whether and how e-voting has been presented in Polish mass media (1), as well as to investigate people’s opinions about e-voting against certain political factors (2). The research is based on a media content analysis (quantitative and qualitative), data collected via the Content Analysis System for Television (CAST) and a quantitative analysis of data from a survey conducted by the authors (2018, sample: 1717 Poles). The results of the analyses show that the debate on the implementation of e-voting is rather poor, but the support for e-voting among Poles remains considerable. The public media rhetoric is interlinked with attitudes towards political parties. To some extent, determinants are reflected in the public opinion on the implementation of e-voting since Poles declare both their support for the introduction of e-voting and willingness to vote online.

Abstract:

This study, a statewide follow-up to the original 1968 Chapel Hill, N.C., agenda-setting study published in 1972 in Public Opinion Quarterly, used poll and content analysis data to compare media use and agenda agreement for different types of reference groups: men vs. women, non-whites vs. whites, young vs. old, higher- vs. lower-formally educated and rich vs. poor. When individuals increase their newspaper reading, then agreement on important public issues within the gender, racial and age groups to which they belong increases to a point of near consensus. Those of higher vs. lower education also come close to sharing issues, although the sharing is less dramatic between rich and poor. Increased television news viewing also results in higher reference group consensus on key public issues. The study concludes: one major function of mass media is to enhance group consensus within the larger social system by providing issue agenda options more attractive than just those historically learned and expressed as an aspect of one's gender, race, age, level of education, or — to a lesser extent — level of wealth. Media public issue agendas compete with unique historical agendas of readers/viewers and often win, to the benefit of the social system if the system can agree on workable solutions to the important problems.

Abstract:

Mass media is the key influencer of public opinion. The influence is not only limited to political and social, but also relates to organisational and economical reputation and brands. Within public opinion, organisations must manage how they are represented competitively within mass media so that they can develop their brand strategically to grow and compete in the current global knowledge economy. This is where the link to Intellectual Capital (IC) Measurement is significant. IC, as the sum of all an organisation's intangible assets drives a company's presence and value within the media, albeit related to human, structural or relational capital attributes. The measurement, therefore, of IC in the mass media context is invaluable to understand how a company is placed strategically and competitively in the external space, and how this links to internal activities, goals and outcomes. This paper is an attempt to address some of the issues related to IC measurements in the mass media context by suggesting a framework that provides a multi-disciplinary and holistic approach to the understanding and contextualising of the organisation's presence in the public space.

Abstract:

The development of the convergent communication technology is not only limited to technology, but has penetrated and changed the basic patterns of human life. As a process structure and artifact, technology is an imperactive feature of future community development. Mass media is an effective means that can reach the masses in a large and widespread universality of reach. Mass media has an important role in society and is considered to have excess that can influence human mind in order to change their lifestyle. This paper tries to explain the phenomenon of convergence media that forces conventional media to enter the internet network (online). The research methods are qualitative and descriptive by applying library study and emperical data. This study discussed the digitalization of freedom in democracy in the mass media. There are 4 (four) aspects that influence the shifting of religious behavior community as a result of mass media freedom, in economic, social, cultural, and political life. The results of the study reveal conventional media shifting to online media give positive and negative impacts to its users. Moral decline in community, the economic life that puts too much emphasis on material fulfillment efforts, has caused people to become consumptive. Culture has caused the changes in the way of nation's life and losing of political values that based on family spirit, consensus, and mutual cooperation. In the view of Islam, mass media is a mass communication media that functions in creating a public opinion. The forming of public opinion is something that cannot be underestimated in the Islamic system. Mass media has a function to build a solid religious community and strengthen the values of nation and state life. Perkembangan teknologi komunikasi yang berkonvergensi ini tidak hanya sebatas dalam ranah teknologi semata, melainkan telah merambah dan mengubah pola-pola dasar kehidupan manusia.Teknologi sebagai struktur proses dan artefak, merupakan ciri imperactive perkembangan masyarakat masa depan. Media massa merupakan sarana efektif yang mampu menjangkau massa dalam jumlah besar dan luas (universality of reach). Media massa memiliki peranan penting dalam kehidupan masyarakat dan dianggap mempunyai keunggulan yang dapat mempengaruhi pikiran manusia sehingga gaya hidup dapat berubah. Makalah ini mencoba memaparkan munculnya fenomena konvergensi media yang memaksa media konvensional melebarkan sayap dan masuk ke dalam jaringan internet (daring). Penelitian ini merupakan penelitian deskriptif kualitiatif dengan menggunakan studi literatur dan data empiris. Dalam penelitian ini dibahas digitalisasi kebebasan berdemokrasi dalam media massa. Ada 4 (empat) aspek yang mempengaruhi pergeseran perilaku religiuitas masyarakat sebagai akibat kebebasan media massa, mulai dari aspek kehidupan ekonomi, sosial, budaya dan politik. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa, pergeseran media konvensional ke media daring memiliki dampak positif bagi yang memanfaatkan dengan baik, sebaliknya berdampak negatif jika memanfaatkannya secara sia-sia. Kemerosotan moral di kalangan masyarakat, kemajuan kehidupan ekonomi yang terlalu menekankan pada upaya pemenuhan material, telah menyebabkan sebagian masyarakat menjadi konsumtif. Sisi budaya mempercepat perubahan pola kehidupan bangsa dan lunturnya nilai-nilai politik yang berdasarkan semangat kekeluargaan, musyawarah mufakat, dan gotong royong. Dalam pandangan Islam, media massa merupakan media komunikasi massal yang berfungsi dalam menciptakan sebuah opini publik yang akan menjadi opini umum.Pembentukan opini umum adalah hal yang tidak bisa disepelekan dalam sistem Islam. Media massa berfungsi untuk membangun masyarakat religiuitas yang kokoh dan untuk memperkuat nilai-nilai kehidupan berbangsa dan bernegara.

Abstract:

Countries that embrace the ideology of freedom of the press, the court is of opinion that is commonly encountered in public spaces. Media, in this case could be interpreted as a medium in favor of the public interest which requires the presence of a new color in Libyan politics for 42 years filled with pressure and persecution.Revolutionary period which lasted for most of the year 2011, which then shows how the media have spread the legality of its influence over public opinion. The mass media in Indonesia does have the power to set the political agenda, because democracy gives him legal to do so.However, court opinions that appeared in the Libyan revolution is not because the country embraced the ideology of freedom of the press, but because of the pull-menaraik between freedom of the press with dimensions embedded control during the reign of Gaddafi.

Abstract:

The article deals with the issues of highlighting the phenomenon of corruption in the regional media space. The relevance of the problem is due to the following: the great role of the mass media in shaping public opinion, the special importance of corruption-related issues for the average person, the demand for custom-made publications on corruption-related topics to fight competitors. On the basis of the content analysis, specific features of the coverage of corruption events in the regions of the Volga Federal District are identified. There is an interest in regional corruption issues, a low level of analysis of published materials and an emphasis on entertaining presentation of the material. There is a significant difference in the form and content of publications on corruption offenses in publications with different founders. It is concluded that the media image of corruption formed by the regional mass media is contradictory and one-sided. As a result, consumers of printed products have a distorted perception of the phenomenon of corruption.

Abstract:

In contemporary society public opinion is generally mediated by the mass media, which has come to encompass the Habermasian ‘public sphere’. This arena is now characterised by the conflict between market and democratic principles, by competing interests of politicians and the media. The presentation of information for debate becomes distorted. The opinion of the ‘public’ is no longer created through deliberation, but is constructed through systems of communication, in conflict with political actors, who seek to retain control of the dissemination of information. The expansion of the internet as a new method of communication provides a potential challenge to the primacy of the traditional media and political parties as formers of public opinion.

Abstract:

Purpose of Study: The media have an important role in the introducing process of candidates of local leaders. Various opinions on the candidates may be formed and spread to the public through the media. The media are able to organize realities from various events occurred so that they become the discourse that supports or rejects the candidates. Methodology: The media’s construction of the candidates is determined by three main factors, namely the media’s par- tiality towards capitalism/capital owners; quasi-support for the public and support for the public interests. The relation between the media and capital owners may make the news report of the media unbalance and tend to be on the side of certain candidates. The news narrative, the terms used, and the resource persons invited are adjusted to the interests of the media to make certain candidates win. Results: The media wars occur in every election for local leaders. One of the elections for local leaders that involved the media war is the Jakarta Election 2017. The media war occurred not only in offline such as printed matter media and online media but also in social media like Facebook and Twitter. Social media were filled with the issue about diversity against obedience to religion which was followed by some hate speech, hoax news, and insults from those who were not of the same opinion. Through this discourse, the political image of the candidate was constructed.

Abstract:

This article approaches social media from the theory of the religio-political practice of acclamation revived by Agamben and following twentieth-century social and political thought and theology (of Weber, Peterson, Schmitt, Kantorowicz). It supplements that theory by more recent political-theoretical, historical and sociological investigations and regards acclamation as a ‘social institution’ following Mauss. Acclamation is a practice that forms publics, whether as the direct presence of the ‘people’, mass-mediated ‘public opinion’, or a ‘public mood’ decipherable through countless social media postings. The article surveys issues of differential geographies of access, weighting of posts, value-creation, orality and gesture, algorithmic governmentality, and Big Data and knowledge production. It argues that social media constitute a public from a mass of individualized, private postings. It concludes that they make possible forms of political calculability and action, yet are continuous with ritual and liturgical elements of political life. This study contributes to an analytics of publicity.

Abstract:

In the current reformation era marked by the rise of mass media as a means of mass communication and a means of forming public opinion, preachers, missionary activists, and Muslims. A journalist should be able to use the mass media to do da'wah as a worship field. A journalist who utilizes the mass media, especially printed media, carries out his da'wah that can be called a preacher 'who preaches bil qalam. This da'wah is called the da'wah bil qalam which basically conveys information about God, about nature and about the hereafter, and the value of eternity of life. Da'wah bil qalam is da'wah through printed media. Given the advances in information technology that enable a person to communicate intensely and cause the message of preaching to spread as widely as possible, preaching through writing, absolutely makes use of advances in information technology. This is where the role of Muslim Journalists takes place of a preacher who spreads goodness to humans.

Abstract:

Paper dwells upon the methodological problems of empirical identification of respondents’ competence in mass surveys as a factor of reliability of empirical sociological knowledge in public space. In modern conditions of public life digitalisation, comprehensive access to various information sources is seen as an information management skill and an element of media literacy, primarily the sensitivity to distorted media content. This competence forms the respondents’ factual knowledge about the survey subject. The subjects of public opinion are the respondents of national representative surveys. The discursive aspect of the empirical sociological knowledge reliability determines the relevance of considering the social context of public opinion formation. The focus is on the differences between public opinion and mass sentiment. Public opinion is based primarily on knowledge of social reality, while the mass attitude is mainly a situational emotional attitude to such a reality. The author analyses the influence of the subjects of the media space on the level of respondents’ competence, in particular, the effect of replacing respondents’ own opinion with the reproduction of the narrative of the relevant media content. As a result, a wrong worldview is formed with an inadequate assessment by respondents of the activities of individual political figures and events in national history. The existing imbalance between the articulation of interest in socio-political issues and the patterns of political activity is recognized. The importance of methodological procedures for identifying the level of respondents’ competence, factual knowledge of the subject of the survey is emphasized. Evaluation judgments should be based on the respondent’s awareness of the nature of the questions asked, which is checked using special filters. At the same time, the pollster-sociologist is responsible for both the tools, the correspondence of the survey subject to the level of respondents’ competence, and the meaningful interpretation of the published data. This requirement is getting more essential in mass surveys on sensitive socio-political issues.

Abstract:

Referring to the concepts, communicative democracy is defined as free, open and democratic communication organized around three equally legitimate public sphere actors – politicians, journalists and public opinion, and populism is understood as good, entertaining and effective communication with people, eroding basic functions of the political parties (institutionalization of ideological conflicts) and politicians (representation), the paper provides insights about the dangers to quality of democracy if the free mass media gets utterly away from political parallelism. Special attention is placed on the tendencies of media personnel to be active in the political life. The paper conceptualizes a tremendous decrease (by one third) in public trust in mass media in Lithuania, observed from 1998 to 2009 and interprets this change as a cumulative result of the post-communist illstructured political field under pressing liberalization and democratization coupled with specific patterns of the Lithuanian political culture and public sphere. In the conditions of a still relatively high public trust in mass-media and scarce foreign ownership of the mass-media outlets in Lithuania, the local media barons are able to produce and impose their own public-agenda. The Lithuanian massmedia and government relations evolve along the lines of the zero-sum game: they seek to control each other, and at the same time try to avoid being controlled by the other, while any other pattern of inter-relations does not appear as viable and appropriate. INTUNE project survey (2009) shows that the media elite’s influence in the national decision making process is significantly higher in Lithuania than, for instance, in Germany or Hungary.Key words: populism, communicative democracy, mass-media ownership, public sphere, public trust.

Abstract:

The paper examined the impacts of social media in influencing public opinion in Muslim communities. Invariably, public opinion is a vital tool for government, politicians, and decision-makers in all communities, including Muslims’. Social media is a powerful and strong machine to mold, shape, and influence public opinion. In developing this paper data were obtained from a secondary source, meaning data were generated from several documentaries such as- books, journals, newspapers, magazines, archives, etc. From the available literature, the study found that the mass media in general, and the social media in particular, are very important in making and influencing public opinion in the society, especially the Muslim communities. To explain the topic under study the researchers adopted two theories; culturists and Class-dominant Theories. The theories claim that people interact with media to create their own meanings out of the images and messages they receive. This theory sees audiences as playing an active rather than a passive role in relation to social media. In addition, the assumption of these theories is that social media replicates and plans the view of a marginal elite, which controls the system to influence people's opinions. The researcher recommended that politicians, governments, and policymakers should pay much attention to social media and to use them wisely in a positive way, for their own good and for the benefit of their communities in particular and the society at large.

Abstract:

The objective of the article is to find out the social and scientific problems of the phenomenon of mass emotions dissemination in social communications through mass media in order to lead public opinion. The article studies the emotional component in the news products of Ukrainian media in the run-up to the 2019 election campaign, the quality of audience feedback received through social media pages of the researched domestic media and the pragmatic intent of news communication with the audience. The methods used by the author to achieve the objective are functional-pragmatic analysis, media monitoring, content analysis and identification: the distinction between neutral and emotionally colored vocabulary is made on the basis of intuition and identification by the hedonic method of B.Dodonov. The main results and conclusions of the study: the interrelation between emotionality in the information product of Ukrainian news media and the pragmatic nature of social communications in which these mass media have been involved (taking into account the interests of media owners). It has been established that in the provision of communication services, some subjects of media communications in Ukraine consider this process as shaping public opinion rather than providing information that is contrary to journalistic standards in the world and in Ukraine. The article may be of interest to media experts, media managers, and journalists-practitioners in improving their activities, because it outlines the current trends in development of social communications and the factors of pragmatic emotionality in mass media.

Abstract:

The article analyzes the role of mass media in the process of political socialization of the Russian youth in the context of deep socioeconomic and political transformations.Especially significant for the development of political views is the period from 15 to 25 years. Young Russian citizens are just at the stage in the process of developing political habits and are easily influenced by different factors. Much of political information comes from the media, both traditional: newspapers, magazines, radio, television, and innovative — through the Internet. Television helps to shape public opinion by providing political news and their assessment, touching upon important problems, existing in the political sphere. The growth of the Internet is especially significant. News aggregators and online bloggers present a broad range of opinions on political events. The importance of an adequate assessment of the role of the traditional and innovative media in the political socialization of young people, in shaping the political subjectivity of young Russian citizens is obvious.

Abstract:

This article seeks to explain why the Dutch extreme-right party, Center Democrats (CD), never succeeded in breaking out of its marginal position. It argues that, in addition to analyzing fluctuations in electoral support, scholars should also examine the degree to which extreme-right parties are able to express their views in the mass media. Supply-side explanations are extended by showing that discursive political opportunities need to be openly acknowledged and debated publicly to become relevant. Relying on longitudinal data derived from political claims analysis and opinion polls, this article demonstrates that negative public reactions significantly eroded the electoral attractiveness of the extreme-right party. In contrast, when one's goal is to achieve mass media access, the results reveal that any publicity is favorable publicity. Public criticism enhanced the CD's access to the public debate. Also, rising support in opinion polls led to more public claim making. Remarkably, however, the extreme right party did not increase its electoral support when it made itself more prominently heard in the mass media. Thus, the CD appeared trapped in a spiral of discursive weakness.

Since the proliferation of the mass media, society has experienced drastical changes, one of them in regards of power. In this essay I analize the power relationships between the mass media and their spectators, as well as their mechanisms and consecuences. I sustain that this mechanism is the narrative understood as a way of deliberately choosing information with the purpose to provide aesthetic feelings to the events on the world. This manipulation of reality generates a power relation as far as the citizen lacks alternative ways of knowing complex social realities, generating an information monopoly, information that can be manipulated both in its content (facts) and in its form (narrative) to show the spectator something that is not always the case. This would generate changes in public opinion which could be easily instrumentalized.

Abstract:

I show the intimate connection between the actions of the justices and support for the Supreme Court during one of the most critical periods of U.S. political history, the four months of 1937 during which Franklin D. Roosevelt sought legislation to “pack” the high bench with friendly personnel. Over the period from 3 February through 10 June 1937, the Gallup Poll queried national samples on 18 separate occasions about FDR's plan. These observations constitute the core of my analyses. I demonstrate the crucial influence of judicial behavior and the mass media in shaping public opinion toward the Supreme Court. This research illuminates the dynamics of public support for the justices, contributes to a clearer understanding of an important historical episode, shows the considerable impact of the mass media on public attitudes toward the Court, and adds more evidence on the role of political events in the making of public opinion.

Abstract:

The Currently, along with the advent of the web 2.0 era, due to the continuous expansion of social media service infrastructures, the shares of conventional public opinion evaluation functions have been gradually shifting from the existing mass media to social media. This phe-nomenon is attributable to the two-way communication and convenience unique to social media and social media are now in charge of an axis of public opinion evaluation standards. In particular, since diverse interests conflict in education policies and countless conflicts of opinions occur in the process of setting up policy agendas, in establishing education policies, accurately analyzing reputations among the public, who are the targets of education policies, in order to set up effective policy agendas, is the most important issue. Therefore, in this study, the resultant values of huge unstructured data on the positive and negative reputations of past policy agendas related to the mandatory software education that has been organized as a regular curriculum of middle/high schools from 2018 in Korea, which have been addressed by the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Science, ICT and Future Planning, and the Korea Foundation for the Advancement of Science and Creativity, felt and judged by the general public on social media such as blogs and Twitter and on online media including portal news were visualized through opinion mining analysis techniques to derive more effective software education related policy agendas. In addition, based on the foregoing, a Korean style software education system that fits circumstances was constructed and the system is expected to become an important measure that provides guidelines for setting mid/long-term road maps for the fostering of creative and convergent talented persons equipped with international competitiveness and software education in Korea.

Abstract:

Weibo is a dominant twitter-like micro-blog media in China, which indicates the trend of social changes in recent years in China. Opinion leaders, in particular, have a marvelous power to influence the thinking of the mass to some extent. In this paper, we propose an innovative model which automatically revises the selection of opinion leader list and analyzes their influence in consideration of the amount of followers and friends and topics such as life, campus, government, public welfare and entertainment. Two-step strategy is applied to our model, namely self-revised opinion leader list construction and VSM-based influence analysis. Experimental results reveal that our model has a good performance on reflecting the analysis of the relationship between authoritative opinion leaders and the mass media.

Abstract:

The article focuses on the main features of newspaper discourse as a mass information discourse type. On the basis of known in linguistics classifications of the discourse the place of newspaper discourse among them has been analyzed and defined as evaluative, extensive, compelling, interlocutory and manipulative. Its main functions (informing and influencing) and categories (cognitive, communicative, metadisсursive) have been singled out. The newspaper discourse has been considered from the points of view of the addresser and the addressee of media messages. As the recipient of newspaper communication is the mass audience with different interests, knowledge degree, intelligence, background, age, culture, life experience, and geographical location, the addresser should solve a difficult problem of engaging the interest to their edition of the most part of this audience. For this purpose, authors use different models of covering the material (actual and author’s), as well as means and devices of presenting the information by selecting the expressive verbal and nonverbal components corresponding to the addressee, appealing to their consciousness, influencing them by means of a combination of expressiveness and standardization. In the article the difference between the terms “mass information media” (MIM) and “mass communication media” (MCM) has been explained. Thus, MIM are monological, unidirectional and responsible for mass informing of the society, whereas MCM, forming public opinion, influence public and individual consciousness, create situations of dialogueness/interactivity, and multidirectional information flow. The comprehensive purposes of a newspaper discourse, such as informing, influencing the reader and forming public opinion, have also been outlined, especially referring to electronic newspapers, MCM of the new age. It has been defined that these convergent media as the center of a modern newspaper discourse are easily accessible, fast, popular with youth, have additional opportunities (photos or videos, comments, discussions, hyperlinks to other sources, two-way communication), and therefore the addresser has a more effective influence on the necessary category of addressees.
