What Makes A Man?: An Alpha Male’S Fight For Masculinity Against The Media’S Muscular Ideals, Julie A. Yockey Jan 2016

What Makes A Man?: An Alpha Male’S Fight For Masculinity Against The Media’S Muscular Ideals, Julie A. Yockey

Williams Honors College, Honors Research Projects

Previous studies have focused heavily on media effects on women however growing trends in male ideals are finding that men are no longer static observers. The media constructs the ideal male body as lean, strong and muscular and men exposed to these idealized images may experience body dissatisfaction. Therefore, this project explores the effects of media ideals on men and the possible relationship between the media depictions of the muscular ideals and masculinity. Current research analysis shows that exposure to media ideals not only causes body dissatisfaction among men; trying to achieve the perfect body may result in unhealthy behaviors. …


Checking The Temperature: Where Does The U.S. Stand On Federal Shield Laws?, Austin Clay Vining Jan 2016

Checking The Temperature: Where Does The U.S. Stand On Federal Shield Laws?, Austin Clay Vining

Teaching Fairness In Journalism: A Challenging Task, Joseph Weber Jan 2016

Teaching Fairness In Journalism: A Challenging Task, Joseph Weber

College of Journalism and Mass Communications: Faculty Publications

Objectivity has long been contentious in American journalism. Many practitioners call it essential to a news organization’s credibility. Critics, however, hold objectivity is impossible and urge reporters simply to reveal their biases. For educators, teaching objectivity is challenging. Some, seeking a middle ground, instead urge fairness and balance, or counsel “impartiality.” Even such approaches are challenging. This article explores the difficulties, based on a study where students were lectured on fairness, balance, objectivity, and bias. They wrote news stories before and after the lessons. Evaluators found no substantial improvement in fairness and increased bias, however, pointing up the difficulties involved.


How Chinese Journalism Students View Domestic And Foreign Media: A Survey On Credibility, Censorship, And The Role Of The Communist Party In Media, Joseph Weber, Linjun Fan Jan 2016

How Chinese Journalism Students View Domestic And Foreign Media: A Survey On Credibility, Censorship, And The Role Of The Communist Party In Media, Joseph Weber, Linjun Fan

College of Journalism and Mass Communications: Faculty Publications

The thirty-nine question survey, conducted anonymously with the help of journalism teachers at eight universities in China, comes at a time when press freedoms are being curtailed on the mainland and in Hong Kong and even as journalists resist the curbs. The results suggest that Chinese leaders may face rising pressure over time to ease …
