Changing Mutual Perception Of Television News Viewers And Program Makers In India- A Case Study Of Cnn-Ibn And Its Unique Initiative Of Citizen Journalism, Ratnesh Dwivedi Mr

Ratnesh Dwivedi

The Indian television system is one of the most extensive systems in the world. Terrestrial broadcasting, which has been the sole preserve of the government, provides television coverage to over 90% of India's 900 million people. By the end of 1996 nearly 50 million households had television sets. International satellite broadcasting, introduced in 1991, has swept across the country because of the rapid proliferation of small scale cable systems. By the end of 1996, Indians could view dozens of foreign and local channels and the competition for audiences and advertising revenues was one of the hottest in the world. In …

Media Education Initiatives In Hong Kong Media: The Uses Of Media Literacy, Alice Lee, Donna Chu

Dr. LEE, Alice

In the media education arena, there is some debate about whether media education initiatives should be supported or conducted by media organizations. In view of several notable media education initiatives recently launched by local media organizations in Hong Kong, this study examines the goals and practices of these projects, and discusses their impact on the media literacy movement. Theoretically, this study is built on critical studies of literacy. It argues that the meaning of media literacy cannot be separated from the social institutions in which it is practiced or the social processes by which practitioners acquire it.

Community Radio:History,Growth,Challenges And Current Status Of It With Special Reference To India, Ratnesh Dwivedi Mr

Ratnesh Dwivedi

Community radio is a type of radio service that caters to the interests of a certain area, broadcasting content that is popular to a local audience but which may often be overlooked by commercial or mass-media broadcasters. Modern-day community radio stations often serve their listeners by offering a variety of content that is not necessarily provided by the larger commercial radio stations. Community radio outlets may carry news and information programming geared toward the local area, particularly immigrant or minority groups that are poorly served by other major media outlets. Philosophically two distinct approaches to community radio can be discerned, …

Sex And Spectacle In Seventeen Magazine: A Feminist Myth Analysis, Meenakshi Gigi Durham Jul 2010

Sex And Spectacle In Seventeen Magazine: A Feminist Myth Analysis, Meenakshi Gigi Durham

Meenakshi Gigi Durham

This paper interrogates the semiotic processes by which semiological codes operate to construct female sexuality in a top-circulating fashion and beauty magazine targeted to adolescents. While a number of studies have found the representations of femininity and sexuality in teen media to be restrictive, unrealistic and conservative, this paper fills a gap in the literature by presenting a close analysis of the strategies by which sexuality is constructed. Given that there is a documented difference between the real-world exigencies of girls’ sexual lives and the representation of sexuality in teen media, this paper uses Barthes’ concept of myth and Debord’s …

From Communication Power Shift To Media Education Paradigm Change: The Case Of Hong Kong, Alice Lee Dec 2009

From Communication Power Shift To Media Education Paradigm Change: The Case Of Hong Kong, Alice Lee

Dr. LEE, Alice

The recent advancement of the new media, particularly Web 2.0, has profound social impact. It is arguably the greatest communication revolution in human history. In the past, only media professionals had the power to produce media content. Now with the help of the new media, young people familiar with advanced technologies can also share this power. For example, many of them are active users of YouTube, Facebook and Twitter. As the rule of the game for social communication has changed, the power structure is overturned. Subsequently we have to ask the question: Are the young people well prepared to properly …

Newspaper Theft, Self-Preservation And The Dimensions Of Censorship, Erik Ugland, Jennifer Lambe

Erik Ugland

One of the most common yet understudied means of suppressing free expression on college and university campuses is the theft of freely-distributed student publications, particularly newspapers. This study examines news accounts of nearly 300 newspaper theft incidents at colleges and universities between 1995 and 2008 in order to identify the manifestations and consequences of this peculiar form of censorship, and to augment existing research on censorship and tolerance by looking not at what people say about free expression but at what they do when they have the power of censorship in their own hands. Among the key findings is that …
