“A Certain Stigma” Of Educational Radio: Judith Waller And “Public Service” Broadcasting, Amanda R. Keeler
“A Certain Stigma” Of Educational Radio: Judith Waller And “Public Service” Broadcasting, Amanda R. Keeler
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This paper explores Judith Waller’s radio programming philosophy over her career that began in 1922 at WMAQ Chicago. In the 1940s, representing the interests of her employer NBC, Waller began to use the phrase “public service” as a way to break free of the “stigma” of educational radio. The concept of public service programming shifted during the 1930s and 1940s in the US, redefined and negotiated in response to assumptions about radio listeners, the financial motivations of commercial radio, and Federal Communications Commission rulings. This paper brings renewed attention to the past and present political economy of media in the …
Intuition And Rationality In Olivier Messiaen's La Nativité Du Seigneur, Mark Konewko
Intuition And Rationality In Olivier Messiaen's La Nativité Du Seigneur, Mark Konewko
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
The purpose of this work is to demonstrate the blend of the intuitive and rational compositional methods used by Olivier Messiaen. The organ works of Messiaen transcend both the rational and intuitive thought and experience process. He practices a highly developed cogent design of harmonies, melodies and rhythmic structures in his music. Using original modes of limited transposition that dictate harmonies, birdsong as a model for melody and Hindu tâlas rhythmic structures to emulate the rhythmic flow in nature, Messiaen weaves an original fabric of music. In this investigation, the reconciliation of these two compositional techniques in Messiaen's La Nativité …

Meetings As Persistent Conversations That Use Icts And Face-To-Face To Build Social Capital, Keri Stephens, Ignacio Cruz, Eric D. Waters, Yaguang Zhu
Meetings As Persistent Conversations That Use Icts And Face-To-Face To Build Social Capital, Keri Stephens, Ignacio Cruz, Eric D. Waters, Yaguang Zhu
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
Attending meetings is a common activity where people accomplish tasks and extend their relationships. But what happens when a meeting is over? Is that the end of the meeting conversation? This study empirically demonstrates that meetings are not discrete events; rather they are a form of persistent conversation processes, involving combinations of ICTs and face-to-face communication. Conversations between meetings contribute to a meeting process-perspective and link to the development of bonding and bridging social capital. The findings suggest that the frequency of face-to-face conversations and text messaging between meetings, positively impact bonding social capital. Peoples’ attitudes toward continuing conversations between …
No Girls Allowed: Television Boys’ Clubs As Resistance To Feminism, Pamela Hill Nettleton Phd
No Girls Allowed: Television Boys’ Clubs As Resistance To Feminism, Pamela Hill Nettleton Phd
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This article analyzes the male-only spaces present in four television series, FX’s The Shield, Nip/Tuck , Rescue Me, and ABC’s Boston Legal, which each include a gendered territory as a recurring feature. I argue that these homosocially segregated environments enforce boundaries against women and shelter intense bromance relationships that foreclose romantic relationships of any kind, acting as physical incarnations of troubling retrograde sexual politics and ideologies. I also assert that the “boys’ clubs” in which these narratives take place, enabled and empowered by the aesthetic dimensions of architecture and design, help establish workplace patriarchy as commonplace, reasonable, and …
Taking Food Fights Online: Analysis Of Chipotle’S Attempt To Cultivate Conversation With The Scarecrow Video, Rebecca Swenson, Nathan Gilkerson, Betsy Anderson
Taking Food Fights Online: Analysis Of Chipotle’S Attempt To Cultivate Conversation With The Scarecrow Video, Rebecca Swenson, Nathan Gilkerson, Betsy Anderson
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This study examines Chipotle’s use of The Scarecrow, an animated YouTube video, to initiate conversation about food sustainability issues. Results illustrate publics were highly engaged in conversation with one another, even though the organization did not directly engage with publics or employ principles of dialogic communication. We highlight the importance of network approaches to studying online interaction between stakeholder groups for public relations scholars interested in dialogical theory frameworks.
Scientific Uncertainty In Media Content: Some Reflections On This Special Issue, Robert J. Griffin
Scientific Uncertainty In Media Content: Some Reflections On This Special Issue, Robert J. Griffin
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
It was an honor to be called upon to be the anchor reviewer for this special issue of Public Understanding of Science devoted to new perspectives on media presentations of scientific uncertainty. But more than that, it was for me a pleasure and an education. It is always rewarding when, as one of the reviewers of submitted manuscripts, you get so engaged by the content and quality of the research in the articles before you that you have to remind yourself that your task is that of the critic. That happened repeatedly with all of the research articles in this …

Brand Tracking On Social Media: The Role Of Country Of Origin Perceptions, James Pokrywczynski, Hang Lu
Brand Tracking On Social Media: The Role Of Country Of Origin Perceptions, James Pokrywczynski, Hang Lu
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
Marketers are now almost a decade into using social media as another outlet in developing brand relationships with consumers. Yet an understanding of how consumers interact with brands online is still in its infancy. This paper compares the social media and brand-tracking habits of consumers in three parts of the world: Asia, the Middle East and the USA. In addition, the study attempts to explain what motivates consumers to follow brands on social media, focusing on the role of products’ country of origin in explaining the relationship. The results show that US consumers spent the most time on social media …

Understanding Dialogue And Engagement Through Communication Experts’ Use Of Interactive Writing To Build Relationships, Betsy Anderson, Rebecca Swenson, Nathan Gilkerson
Understanding Dialogue And Engagement Through Communication Experts’ Use Of Interactive Writing To Build Relationships, Betsy Anderson, Rebecca Swenson, Nathan Gilkerson
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
Dialogic communication is an important public relations theory, yet scholarship has found few organizations using it to its full potential. Meanwhile, multiple overlapping definitions exist for related terms like engagement, interactivity, and responsiveness, causing potential confusion for researchers and professionals. This research reports the results of in-depth interviews with top digital public relations professionals regarding how they use interactive writing, a form of social media engagement, to build relationships. Through their own unprompted words, the research also describes how professionals use terms such as dialogue, engagement, interactivity, and responsiveness, and corresponding definitions, to refer to their …
Communicating With Key Publics In Crisis Communication: The Synthetic Approach To The Public Segmentation In Caps (Communicative Action In Problem Solving), Young Kim, Andrea Miller, Myoung-Gi Chon
Communicating With Key Publics In Crisis Communication: The Synthetic Approach To The Public Segmentation In Caps (Communicative Action In Problem Solving), Young Kim, Andrea Miller, Myoung-Gi Chon
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
The purpose of this study is to identify and understand key publics and their communication behaviours in crisis communication, using the public segmentation framework which has been rarely used in crisis communication. In doing so, the study quantitatively tests a new theoretical framework of Communicative Action in Problem Solving, classifying eight types of aware and active publics. Through the new framework of public segmentation, the survey results from 1,113 participants substantiate eight types of active and aware publics, as well as their communicative characteristics in a crisis situation. The study finds that the aware and active publics are, as the …

Exploring Organizational Communication (Micro) History Through Network Connections, Scott C. D'Urso, Jeremy P. Fyke, David H. Torres
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
In light of the 100th anniversary of the National Communication Association, the following essay offers an initial look at the communication subdiscipline of organizational communication and its development over the past seven-plus decades. As part of this review, we advocate the use of network methods as a microhistory analytic tool to explore the vast number of connections, both between people and research interests, generated as the discipline developed from its humble beginnings. This work represents a small sample of the greater Organizational Communication Genealogy Project. This larger effort seeks to create a detailed review of the discipline as it explores …

Farmed And Dangerous? A Case Study Of Chipotle’S Branded Entertainment Series And Polarized Reactions To Its Satirical Depiction Of Farming And Agribusiness, Nathan Gilkerson, Rebecca Swenson, Betsy Anderson
Farmed And Dangerous? A Case Study Of Chipotle’S Branded Entertainment Series And Polarized Reactions To Its Satirical Depiction Of Farming And Agribusiness, Nathan Gilkerson, Rebecca Swenson, Betsy Anderson
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This study follows Chipotle’s innovative strategy of using branded entertainment and satire to enhance its brand image and positive consumer perceptions, while negatively portraying an entire industry. The study explores audience reactions to Chipotle’s satirical Farmed and Dangerous program, part of the company’s broader “Food with Integrity” campaign. Increasing agricultural literacy and understanding among the general public is a priority (Doerfert, 2011). Yet marketing communication campaigns—and responses or reactions to those campaigns—that simplify issues into distinct “sides,” or focus on attacks, prevent deep discussion of the complexity of our food system and efforts to collaborate on solutions. Research presented uses …
"The Birth Control Divide": U. S. Press Coverage Of Contraception, 1873-2013, Ana C. Garner, Angela Michel
"The Birth Control Divide": U. S. Press Coverage Of Contraception, 1873-2013, Ana C. Garner, Angela Michel
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
For more than 140 years, religious, medical, legislative, and legal institutions have contested the issue of contraception. In this conversation, predominantly male voices have attached reproductive rights to tangential moral and political matters, revealing an ongoing, systematic attempt to regulate human bodies, especially those of women. This analysis of 1873-2013 press coverage of contraception in the New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, and the Chicago Tribune shows a division between institutional ideology and real-life experience; women’s reproductive rights are negotiable. Although journalists often reported that contraception was a factor in the everyday life of women and men, …

Sound Recognition Of Historical Visibility: The Radio Preservation Task Force Of The Library Of Congress: Introduction, Josh Shepperd, Amanda R. Keeler, Chris Sterling
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This issue of Journal of Radio & Audio Media serves as a gesture toward increasing attention to many untold cultural sound histories. The “question” of radio preservation, we’re just coming to realize, closely equates to our responsibility to identify gaps within our historical record, as those gaps are delineated along race, class, orientation, and gendered lines. Sound preservation turns out to be one strategy for how to reconcile failures of recognition. It’s widely accepted that a historian must not project a different meaning upon historical materials than its author intended. Yet at the same time historians might now play the …
Old New Media: Closed-Circuit Television And The Classroom, Amanda R. Keeler
Old New Media: Closed-Circuit Television And The Classroom, Amanda R. Keeler
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This article explores closed-circuit television (CCTV) and its ‘bright promise stage’, as it was contemplated, marketed, and implemented as a low-cost classroom tool. After the Federal Communications Commission issued the 1952 Sixth Report and Order, many schools and communities sought to bring educational television to the classroom. However, this model was financially out of reach for most. CCTV was a more affordable version of educational television that could cater to specific classroom needs and allow schools to create their own in-house network. CCTV represents just one of many new technologies that have been promoted as ideal for classroom instruction over …

Insights For Prevention Campaigns: The Power Of Drinking Rituals In The College Student Experience From Freshman To Senior Year, Joyce M. Wolburg
Insights For Prevention Campaigns: The Power Of Drinking Rituals In The College Student Experience From Freshman To Senior Year, Joyce M. Wolburg
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
Using a ritual behavior model and in-depth interviews, this qualitative study examined the role of alcohol in the lives of college students as they transitioned from freshmen to senior year. Key differences in the drinking ritual emerged across the four years, and insights were noted in students' use of alcohol to form a community of friends, to find order in their lives, and to transition from ill-at-ease adolescents to confident adults. A key campaign strategy emerged based on students' desire to avoid being the one who drinks the most or the one who drinks the least.

Chair Support, Faculty Entrepreneurship, And The Teaching Of Statistical Reasoning To Journalism Undergraduates In The United States, Robert J. Griffin, Sharon Dunwoody
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
Statistical reasoning is not the same as doing calculations. Instead, it involves cognitive skills such as the ability to think critically and systematically with data, skills important for everyday news work and essential for the era of data journalism. Twin surveys of the chairs of undergraduate journalism programs in the United States, conducted 11 years apart, revealed that those who perceived benefits from statistical reasoning instruction were more likely to reward entrepreneurship (faculty attempts to integrate this instruction into their classes), but with slow gains over time in the fairly small number of such faculty. Being consistent with university goals …
Defining A Medium: The Educational Aspirations For Early Radio, Amanda R. Keeler
Defining A Medium: The Educational Aspirations For Early Radio, Amanda R. Keeler
College of Communication Faculty Research and Publications
This essay examines the attempts by many writers to steer the burgeoning U.S. radio industry towards educational uses and programming in the 1920s. At the same time that commercial radio began to take shape, several competing and seemingly incompatible visions of the airwaves emerged—one of which privileged the use of radio for educational purposes. Using discourse from trade journals, general interest magazines, and newspapers, this article explores the calls for educational programming amid the rapidly expanding and consolidating commercial radio industry.
