Exploring Organizational Resilience Asset And Its Antecedents For Effective Internal Crisis Communication, Young Kim
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
Nowadays crises are omnipresent with daily news headlines as reminders. The public continues to see or experience many different crises that affect numerous individuals and organizations as well as society in general. Against this backdrop, corporate communication professionals, for effective crisis management, are expected to help the organizations and their leaders make decisions, as well as communicate clearly when crises arise. Considering a fast changing media environment, recent scholars have called for new approaches to crisis communication to enhance theoretical developments. They suggested that researchers should take a broader context beyond the dominant crisis communication research perspectives based on the …
Strategic Use Of Language In White House Twitter Communications, Margo L. Jolet
Strategic Use Of Language In White House Twitter Communications, Margo L. Jolet
LSU Master's Theses
Lippmann (1922) theorized that we understand our world through elites and the media because we cannot experience everything ourselves. We look to others to share their experiences with us. In this way, the media and elites tell us what is important in our world. Converse (1964), Zaller (1992), and Lupia (1994) argue that not only do elites and the media help us see what is important, but they draw out attributes of these issues to help us make political determinations congruent with our belief systems. In this thesis, I conduced two studies investigating candidate, party, and White House tweets about …
Framing The Ebola Outbreak: Systemic Influences On News Coverage, Adaobi Vivian Duru
Framing The Ebola Outbreak: Systemic Influences On News Coverage, Adaobi Vivian Duru
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
ABSTRACT Using a media systems comparative framework, I investigated the relationship between systemic characteristics and news coverage of international events. Leveraging a highly salient event: the Ebola outbreak, I extended the Hallin and Mancini Model to non-western democracies. This dissertation explored differences in media coverage of Ebola across media systems. Findings revealed that characteristics of media systems inform how news about an event is framed by reporters. By investigating news influences, this dissertation broadly sheds light on the latent influences of politics and culture on what audiences receive as news. My results showed that liberal media systems such as those …
Planned Parenthood In Crisis: Social Media Strategies And Frames, Lauren Hudel Goodman
Planned Parenthood In Crisis: Social Media Strategies And Frames, Lauren Hudel Goodman
LSU Master's Theses
Planned Parenthood entered crisis mode in the summer of 2015 with the release of videos alleging sales of fetal tissue by the Center for Medical Progress. Its crisis communication strategy was implemented to manage its reputation and influence public opinion regarding the organization and potential defunding by Congress. Through the use of women’s health and abortion framing, Planned Parenthood was able to prime its public’s attitudes towards the organization and potential negative outcomes of removing federal funding from the organization. As discovered through a content analysis, Planned Parenthood specifically addressed the crisis in its press releases, allowing the organization to …
Exploring Intermedia Agenda Setting Effects Of Last Week Tonight With John Oliver, Andrew Abad
Exploring Intermedia Agenda Setting Effects Of Last Week Tonight With John Oliver, Andrew Abad
LSU Master's Theses
The HBO television program Last Week Tonight with John Oliver is a new and unique take on the typical political comedy show popularized by programs like The Daily Show and The Colbert Report. Uninterrupted by commercial breaks and with full creative control, host John Oliver and his team spend 30 minutes on Sunday nights discussing a typically underreported story at length, abandoning the monologue and interview portions reminiscent of traditional political comedy shows in favor of a long-form style investigation into a particular issue or topic. The main segment of each episode is then uploaded to the social media website, …
