University of Nebraska Press Mediated Narration in the Digital Age
Book SynopsisMediated Narration in the Digital Age examines mediated narration from 1991 through 2018. Peter Joseph Gloviczki considers this pivotal period spanning the rise of the World Wide Web through the growth of social media to understand how contemporary media accounts storied everyday life and times of crisis. He uses examples across media culture to show that complicated issues benefit from a critical poststructuralist approach to journalism, which promotes a communitarian ethos of respect, inclusion, and dialogue. Textual analysis of a wide range of media narratives—from a 2012 YouTube clip outlining a time line of the Sandy Hook school shootings, to coverage of then-newly-discovered footage of President Roosevelt in a wheelchair in 2013, to the Cincinnati Enquirer’s 2017 piece “Seven Days of Heroin”—illustrate how theoretical concepts work in practice while explaining the new media environment. In response to the lack of awareness oTrade Review “Gloviczki contributes in important ways to the ongoing debate about the future of journalism, a debate animated by the unprecedented potential for new media technology to revitalize our thinking about—and our commitment to—a more humane world.”—Theodore L. Glasser, professor emeritus of communication at Stanford University“A compelling, provocative, and highly instructive manifesto for new and better ways to practice the art of communication, whether the art of journalism or the art of communication, in everyday life.”—Gerry Philipsen, professor emeritus of communication at the University of Washington “Gloviczki’s book—scaffolded by an intricate grid of theories—offers a personally rooted, poignant, powerful, and accessible exposition of mediated narration’s cultural dimensions, its essential role in helping audiences navigate the complex terrains of school violence, ableism, body politics, drug addiction, and more.”—Radhika Parameswaran, Herman B. Wells Endowed Professor, The Media School at Indiana University–Bloomington“Stunning writing, bold, close to the bone: Gloviczki shows us how to show, not tell.”—Norman K. Denzin, professor emeritus of communications, Institute of Communications Research, University of Illinois “In our troubled times we depend on journalism more than ever. But like many other societal institutions, journalism, too, is challenged to give voice to the variety of our experiences, to go beyond the flatness of portrayals, and, cognizant of its power and its constraints, to encourage society to cherish that narrating differences can unite. Mediated Narration in the Digital Age is a thoughtful and insightful reminder of that.”—Viktor Mayer-Schönberger, professor of Internet governance and regulation at the University of Oxford “Mediated Narration in the Digital Age provides a prescription for a form of storytelling better equipped to ethically represent the various communities that are both journalism’s subjects and its audiences. Both sobering and hopeful, Mediated Narration in the Digital Age is an important book designed to bring twenty-first-century journalism ‘more closely into alignment with the human experience.’”—Michael X.

Cornell University Press Atomic Bill
Book SynopsisIn Atomic Bill, Vincent Kiernan examines the fraught career of New York Times science journalist, William L. Laurence and shows his professional and personal lives to be a cautionary tale of dangerous proximity to power. Laurence was fascinated with atomic science and its militarization. When the Manhattan Project drew near to perfecting the atomic bomb, he was recruited to write much of the government''s press materials that were distributed on the day that Hiroshima was obliterated. That instantly crowned Laurence as one of the leading journalistic experts on the atomic bomb. As the Cold War dawned, some assessed Laurence as a propagandist defending the militarization of atomic energy. For others, he was a skilled science communicator who provided the public with a deep understanding of the atomic bomb. Laurence leveraged his perch at the Times to engage in paid speechmaking, book writing, filmmakingTable of ContentsIntroduction: A Moth to the Flame 1. The Second Coming of Prometheus 2.

Cornell University Press The Price of Truth
Book SynopsisIn The Price of Truth, Richard Fine recounts the intense drama surrounding the German surrender at the end of World War II and the veteran Associated Press journalist Edward Kennedy''s controversial scoop. On May 7, 1945, Kennedy bypassed military censorship to be the first to break the news of the Nazi surrender executed in Reims, France. Both the practice and the public perception of wartime reporting would never be the same. While, at the behest of Soviet leaders, Allied authorities prohibited release of the story, Kennedy stuck to his journalistic principles and refused to manage information he believed the world had a right to know. No action by an American correspondent during the war proved more controversial.The Paris press corps was furious at what it took to be Kennedy''s unethical betrayal; military authorities threatened court-martial before expelling him from Europe. Kennedy defended himself, insisting the news was being withhelTrade ReviewFine presents a meticulous examination of the fraught relationship between the military and the media during World War II.

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Mediated Intimacy: Sex Advice in Media Culture
Book SynopsisMediated Intimacy looks at contemporary sex and relationship advice, exploring how our intimate lives are shaped through different media, from manuals and magazines to television and Twitter. By exploring how intimacy is constructed through different media texts, the authors consider which ideas and practices these changing forms of 'sexpertise' open up, and which they close down. The book reveals the intimate operation of power in mediated advice, how words and images, stories and sound can work to shore up social injustice. It critically engages with the ideas of choice and responsibility in sex self-help, arguing that these can obscure and/or justify oppression, even if they're sometimes experienced as empowering and/or pleasurable. This bold and incisive book provides a radical challenge to the assumptions underlying the sex advice industry, and presents a critical, collaborative and consensual vision for sex advice of the future.Trade Review"At a time when the field of sexual discourse is often characterized as unbounded we may fail to notice the structuring operations of new normativities. This exceptionally readable book tracks fraught concepts of intimacy as they arise in a range of media forms, and a period of more overt transactionalism and heavy cultural emphasis on production of the sexually desirable, sexually agentic self. The authors' meticulous and rigorous account of public discourses of sexual intimacy is a considerable achievement."—Diane Negra, University College Dublin "Investigating the varied dimensions of mediating our intimate lives, this brilliant book provides a far-reaching analysis of contemporary forms of sex advice, from sex television to sex apps and more. Importantly, Mediated Intimacy not only examines the contemporary media landscape, but it is also a guide for readers to create sex-critical advice on their own, using creative and thought-provoking examples for challenging conventional norms and practices about sexual intimacies."—Sarah Banet-Weiser, University of Southern CaliforniaTable of ContentsAcknowledgements vi 1 Mediated Intimacy: Sex Advice in Media Culture 1 2 History of Mediated Sex Advice 30 3 Gender, Sexuality and the Body in the Media 51 4 Being Normal 83 5 Work and Entrepreneurship 107 6 Pleasure 132 7 Safety and Risk 153 8 Communication and Consent 176 9 Conclusions 202 References 226 Index 261

John Wiley and Sons Ltd Journalism: Why It Matters
Book SynopsisDespite the criticisms that have been leveled at news organizations in recent years and the many difficulties they face, journalism matters. It matters, argues Schudson, because it orients people daily in the complex and changing worlds in which they live. It matters because it offers a fact-centered, documented approach to pertinent public issues. It matters because it keeps watch on the powerful, especially those in government, and can press upon them unpleasant truths to which they must respond. Corruption is stemmed, unwise initiatives stopped, public danger averted because of what journalists do. This book challenges journalists to think hard about what they really do. It challenges skeptical news audiences to be mindful not only of media bias but also of their own biases and how these can distort their perception. And it holds out hope that journalism will be for years to come a path for ambitious, curious young people who love words or pictures or numbers and want to use them to improve the public conversation in familiar ways or in ways yet to be imagined.Trade Review“Michael Schudson has written a thoughtful, comprehensive, balanced, eloquent, and passionate book about the worth of journalism in present times.

Purdue University Press Seeking a Voice: Images of Race and Gender in the
Book SynopsisThis volume chronicles the media's role in reshaping American life during the tumultuous nineteenth century by focusing specifically on the presentation of race and gender in the newspapers and magazines of the time. The work is divided into four parts: Part I, 'Race Reporting', details the various ways in which America's racial minorities were portrayed; Part II, 'Fires of Discontent', looks at the moral and religious opposition to slavery by the abolitionist movement and demonstrates how that opposition was echoed by African Americans themselves; Part III, 'The Cult of True Womanhood', examines the often disparate ways in which American women were portrayed in the national media as they assumed a greater role in public and private life; and Part IV, 'Transcending the Boundaries', traces the lives of pioneering women journalists who sought to alter and expand their gender's participation in American life, showing how the changing role of women led to various journalistic attempts to depict and define women through sensationalistic news coverage of female crime stories.

University of Massachusetts Press An Army of Ex-lovers: My Life at the Gay
Book SynopsisThis is a vivid, funny portrait of the four tumultuous years a young editor spent working in the gay press. Boston's weekly ""Gay Community News"" was ""the center of the universe"" during the late 1970s, writes Amy Hoffman in this memoir of gay liberation before AIDS, before gay weddings, and before The L Word. Provocative, informative, inspiring, and absurd, with a small circulation but a huge influence, ""Gay Community News"" produced a generation of leaders, writers, and friends. In addition to capturing the heady atmosphere of the times - the victories, controversies, and tragedies - Hoffman's memoir is also her personal story, written with wit and insight, of growing up in a political movement; of her deepening relationships with charismatic, talented, and sometimes utterly weird coworkers; and of trying to explain it all to her large Jewish family.Trade ReviewFunny, engaging, enlightening, heart-breaking: a history of the heart that will touch everyone who reads it. - Anita Diamant, author of The Red Tent ""Amy Hoffman has written a fabulous memoir of post-Stonewall lesbian and gay liberation. The book captures the radical political spirit of the 1970s, conjuring up a world of men, women, and differently gender-configured activists who sought to foment a revolution to end capitalism, racism, homophobia, and sexism all the while putting out a weekly newspaper.... This is memoir at its best."" - Janice Irvine, author of Disorders of Desire ""Part social history, part personal memoir, and part off-beat love story. Amy Hoffman writes with so much charm and wit that this portrait of a group of political radicals trying to change the world becomes an endearing and completely accessible tribute to the power of community and the importance of convictions. There is something to love, admire, and laugh about on every page of this book. I hated to see it end."" - Stephen McCauley, author of The Object of My Affection ""An Army of Ex-Lovers is Amy Hoffman's witty, nuanced, personal history of Gay Community News, Boston's gay weekly newspaper in the 1970s and '80s. I expected as much from this fine writer. What is delightfully unexpected is that it is also the love story between a gay man and a lesbian. Political, cranky, fully committed, loyal, and loud. It's big love. It's the untold story of those early years of gay liberation."" - Kate Clinton, author of Don't Get Me Started

Michigan State University Press Communication Convergence in Contemporary China:
Book SynopsisIn a speech opening the nineteenth Chinese Communist Party Congress meeting in October 2017, President Xi Jinping spoke of a 'New Era' characterized by new types of communication convergence between the government, Party, and state media. His speech signaled that the role of the media is now more important than ever in cultivating the Party's image at home and disseminating it abroad. Indeed, communication technologies, people, and platforms are converging in new ways around the world, not just in China. This process raises important questions about information flows, control, and regulation that directly affect the future of US-China relations. Just a year before Xi proclaimed the New Era, scholars had convened in Beijing at a conference cohosted by the Communication University of China and the US-based National Communication Association to address these questions. How do China and the United States envision each other, and how do our interlinked imaginaries create both opportunities for and obstacles to greater understanding and strengthened relations? Would the convergence of new media technologies, Party control, and emerging notions of netizenship in China lead to a new age of opening and reform, greater Party domination, or perhaps some new and intriguing combination of repression and freedom? Communication Convergence in Contemporary China presents international perspectives on US-China relations in this New Era with case studies that offer readers informative snapshots of how these relations are changing on the ground, in the lived realities of our daily communication habits.Trade ReviewMedia convergence is well-known as a concept, but as a historical process, it is complicated by changing social contexts. This volume studies media convergence in China while making sensitive comparisons with the United States. The result is an engaging comparative study that illuminates the concrete processes of media convergence and fragmentation in both countries. This is an important contribution to the study of global communication as well as media politics in China." - Guobin Yang, Grace Lee Boggs Professor of Communication and Sociology, Annenberg School for Communication, University of Pennsylvania

University of Tennessee Press The Atlanta Daily Intelligencer Covers the Civil
Book SynopsisConfederate newspapers were beset by troubles: paper shortages, high ink prices, printers striking for higher pay, faulty telegraphic news service, and subscription prices insufficient to support their operations. But they also had the potential to be politically powerful, and their reporting of information—accurate or biased—shaped perceptions of the Civil War and its trajectory.The Atlanta Daily Intelligencer Covers the Civil War investigates how Atlanta’s most important newspaper reported the Civil War in its news articles, editorial columns, and related items in its issues from April 1861 to April 1865. The authors show how The Intelligencer narrated the war’s important events based on the news it received, at what points the paper (and the Confederate press, generally) got the facts right or wrong based on the authors’ original research on the literature, and how the paper’s editorial columns reflected on those events from an unabashedly pro-Confederate point of view.While their book focuses on The Intelligencer, Stephen Davis and Bill Hendrick also contribute to the scholarship on Confederate newspapers, emphasizing the papers’ role as voices of Confederate patriotism, Southern nationalism, and contributors to wartime public morale. Their well-documented, detailed study adds to our understanding of the relationship between public opinion and misleading propaganda

University of Massachusetts Press The Spy Who Loved Us: The Vietnam War and Pham
Book SynopsisPham Xuan An was one of the twentieth century's greatest spies. While working as a correspondent for Time during the Vietnam War, he sent intelligence reports - written in invisible ink or hidden inside spring rolls in film canisters - to Ho Chi Minh and his generals in North Vietnam.Only after Saigon fell in 1975 did An's colleagues learn that the affable raconteur in their midst, acclaimed as ""dean of the Vietnamese press corps,"" was actually a general in the North Vietnamese Army. In recognition of his tradecraft and his ability to spin military losses - such as the Têt Offensive of 1968 - into psychological gains, An was awarded sixteen military medals.After the book's original publication, WikiLeaks revealed that Thomas A. Bass's account of An's career was distributed to CIA agents as a primer in espionage. Now available in paper with a new preface, An's story remains one of the most gripping to emerge from the era.

NewSouth Publishing Paper Emperors: The rise of Australia's newspaper
Book SynopsisBefore newspapers were ravaged by the digital age, they were a powerful force, especially in Australia – a country of newspaper giants and kingmakers.This magisterial book reveals who owned Australia’s newspapers and how they used them to wield political power. A corporate and political history of Australian newspapers spanning 140 years, it explains how Australia’s media system came to be dominated by a handful of empires and powerful family dynasties. Many are household names, even now: Murdoch, Fairfax, Symes, Packer. Written with verve and insight and showing unparalleled command of a vast range of sources, Sally Young shows how newspaper owners influenced policy-making, lobbied and bullied politicians, and shaped internal party politics.The book begins in 1803 with Australia’s first newspaper owner – a convict who became a wealthy bank owner – giving the industry a blend of notoriety, power and wealth from the start. Throughout the twentieth century, Australians were unaware that they were reading newspapers owned by secret bankrupts and failed land boomers, powerful mining magnates, Underbelly-style gangsters, bankers, and corporate titans. It ends with the downfall of Menzies in 1941 and his conviction that a handful of press barons brought him down. The intervening years are packed with political drama, business machinations and a struggle for readers, all while peddling power and influence. It’s an ambitious media and political history, the likes of whichhaven’t been undertaken before in Australia. Explores some of the most interesting and important episodes andrelationships from the birth of the Australian newspaper industryto the 1940s. Newspapers purport to hold the powerful to account but are rarelyheld to account about their own history and influence Sally Young is one of Australia’s leading media historians, and this is a magisterial work Packed with colourful detail, ambitious, grasping characters

They are Australians, Alf King from the Sydney Morning Herald and Norm Stockton from the Sydney Sun; Americans, Ed Murrow from CBS and Lowell Bennett from the International News Service; and Norwegian journalist and activist, Nordahl Grieg. Each is assigned to one of the 400 Lancaster bombers that fly into the hazardous skies over Germany on a single night. Of the five, only two land back at base to file their stories.After parachuting out of his doomed aircraft, one reporter is taken prisoner. From there his captors take him on a remarkable tour of bombed-out German cities.In Dispatch from Berlin, 1943, Anthony Cooper and Thorsten Perl uncover this incredible true story of life on both sides of the war.Trade ReviewAn extraordinary tale of five brave reporters and their eyewitness accounts of the horrors of aerial warfare during and after a raid on Berlin. A compelling tribute to the 57 205 young men killed while serving with bomber command during the Second World War." —Ian McPhedran"This book captures the life and death drama that saw five war correspondents, two of them Australian, assigned to RAF Bomber Command to report on the most dangerous campaign of the Second World War — bombing Berlin. Neither they nor the crew knew if they would survive the night. A compelling story of a single raid that has remained untold for too long." —Peter Rees"A deep, intimate and remarkable story — indeed, a rare personal window into the huge and devastating machinery of the air war over Europe during World War Two. The trials and tribulations of five intrepid journalists is an exciting tale in its own right, but it simultaneously gives a unique keyhole with which to view the tenure and drama of the era. Well-written and equally well-researched, this book is a gem for those with even a passing interest in military history of the Second World War, and scholars of the field alike." —Craig Stockings"Dispatch from Berlin, 1943 takes you on a heart-stopping bombing raid over enemy territory as brave allied air crew battle flak, fighters and fate.

Wits University Press Power and Loss in South African Journalism: News
Book SynopsisThis timely collection of essays analyses the crisis of journalism in contemporary South Africa at a period when the media and their role are frequently at the centre of public debate. The transition to digital news has been messy, random and unpredictable. The spread of news via social media platforms has given rise to political propaganda, fake news and a flattening of news to banality and gossip. Media companies, however, continue to shrink newsrooms, ousting experienced journalists in favour of 'content producers'. Against this backdrop, Daniels points out the contribution of investigative journalists to exposing corruption and sees new opportunities emerging to forge a model for the future of non-profit, public-funded journalism. Engaging and dynamic, the book argues for the power of public interest journalism, including investigative journalism, and a diversity of voices and positions to be reflected in the news. It addresses the gains and losses from decolonial and feminist perspectives and advocates for a radical shift in the way power is constituted by the media in the South African postcolony. A valuable introduction to the confusion that confronts journalism students, it has much to offer practising media professionals. Daniels uses her years of experience as a newspaper journalist to write with authority and illuminate complex issues about newsroom politics. Interviews with alienated media professionals and a semi-autobiographical lens add a personal element that will appeal to readers interested in the inner life of the media.Trade ReviewWhat is the power of journalism in an era of social media? Power and Loss in South African Journalism examines this important question and makes a ringing call to re-imagine the media for the 21st century. —Ferial Haffajee, associate editor, Daily Maverick Glenda Daniels takes sophisticated theoretical turns to recuperate the idea that the media ought not to reinforce existing patterns of power and domination, but instead, question the social order to mediate the emergence of a just and equal society.

Liverpool University Press Newspapers and Newsmakers: The Dublin Nationalist
Book SynopsisFocusing on the years 1842 to 1867, Newspapers and Newsmakers evaluates the impact of the Dublin nationalist press on the Irish nationalist cause in its aspirations to overthrow the 1800 Act of Union and establish an independent Irish nation. The Dublin nationalist journalists were totally immersed in Irish nationalist activities, whether by reporting news or creating it, often risking danger to themselves from the British government. Beginning with The Nation, a newspaper that heralded a new era of Irish political and cultural nationalism, this book charts the Dublin nationalist press’s emphatic role in the promotion of Daniel O’Connell’s Repeal of the Union campaign with its impressive peaceful mass mobilizations, the bitter and turbulent splits between leading Irish nationalists in 1846 and 1848, and the attempted Young Ireland rebellion. Following the temporary downfall of the nationalist movement, and in response to the Great Famine, the Dublin nationalist journalists sought an ideological reconstruction of the Irish nationalist cause that included a long-term commitment to revolutionary nationalism leading to the rise of the Irish Republican Brotherhood. Drawing upon critical analyses of the political and literary contents of the Dublin nationalist newspapers, emphasis is placed upon the power of ideas, particularly the impassioned dynamics between constitutional nationalism and revolutionary nationalism. This book also focuses on the thinking of high-profile nationalist writers such as Thomas Davis and John Mitchel and the inspiration they gave to their contemporaries and future Irish nationalists alike. Newspapers and Newsmakers establishes that what was written in the Dublin nationalist press during the mid-nineteenth century had a powerful and enduring influence on the development of Irish nationalism.Trade ReviewReviews 'An original contribution to the historiography of Irish nationalism and press history in Ireland.'

Reaktion Books An Inky Business: A History of Newspapers from
Book SynopsisAn Inky Business is a book about the making and printing of news. It is a history of ink, paper, printing press and type, and of those who made and read newspapers in Britain, continental Europe and America from the British Civil Wars to the Battle of Gettysburg in the United States nearly 200 years later. But it is also an account of what news was and how the idea of news became central to public life. Newspapers ranged from purveyors of high seriousness to carriers of scurrilous gossip. Our current obsession with 'fake news', the worrying revelations or hints about how money, power and technology shapes and controls the press and flows of what is believed to be genuine information, has dark early-modern echoes.Trade Review'Matt Shaw's An Inky Business is a vivid and incisive account of the origins of newspapers and their extraordinary role in the transformation of society over 200 years. With the very concept of news under threat, this book could not be more timely.'-Paul Lay, editor of History Today and author of Providence Lost: The Rise and Fall of Cromwell's Protectorate (2020)

Liverpool University Press Press, Politics and National Identities in
Book SynopsisFor more than three generations, the members of the Godo family controlled Barcelonas top-selling newspaper La Vanguardia, navigating it through the countrys turbulent 20th century. Whether under the corrupt politics of the Bourbon Restoration, the radical transformations of the Second Republic or the tragedy of the Spanish Civil War, La Vanguardia remained Barcelonas indisputable journalistic benchmark. Central to this success was the Godo familys extraordinary capacity to meet the changing tastes of a plural audience whilst adjusting to a changing political scenario. In parallel, the ownership of the newspaper allowed family members to expand their interests to other fields, such as politics, business and colonial rule in Cuba and Morocco. The long-standing reputation of the Godo dynasty, however, is in sharp contrast with the lack of studies about their members and the newspaper they founded. This silence is due, in part, to the influence that La Vanguardia still exerts on public life today. Drawing on hitherto unused archival material, this book is the first account about the most renowned publishers and the most important newspaper in Catalonias history. In so doing, it also sheds new light on how the media shaped (and conditioned) Europes birth of mass politics. In fact, while contemporaries often observed that newspapers had a powerful influence over public affairs, historians have not systematically examined the role of press owners as political actors. Likewise, media specialists have seldom considered how the rise of the new mass press affected democratisation and the collapse of liberal institutions. In contrast, Pol Dalmau focuses on the case of a renowned family in Barcelona to uncover the medias critical role in Europes uneven road to modernity.

Liverpool University Press Newspapers and Newsmakers: The Dublin Nationalist
Book SynopsisFocusing on the years 1842 to 1867, Newspapers and Newsmakers evaluates the impact of the Dublin nationalist press on the Irish nationalist cause in its aspirations to overthrow the 1800 Act of Union and establish an independent Irish nation. The Dublin nationalist journalists were totally immersed in Irish nationalist activities, whether by reporting news or creating it, often risking danger to themselves from the British government. Beginning with The Nation, a newspaper that heralded a new era of Irish political and cultural nationalism, this book charts the Dublin nationalist press’s emphatic role in the promotion of Daniel O’Connell’s Repeal of the Union campaign with its impressive peaceful mass mobilizations, the bitter and turbulent splits between leading Irish nationalists in 1846 and 1848, and the attempted Young Ireland rebellion. Following the temporary downfall of the nationalist movement, and in response to the Great Famine, the Dublin nationalist journalists sought an ideological reconstruction of the Irish nationalist cause that included a long-term commitment to revolutionary nationalism leading to the rise of the Irish Republican Brotherhood. Drawing upon critical analyses of the political and literary contents of the Dublin nationalist newspapers, emphasis is placed upon the power of ideas, particularly the impassioned dynamics between constitutional nationalism and revolutionary nationalism. This book also focuses on the thinking of high-profile nationalist writers such as Thomas Davis and John Mitchel and the inspiration they gave to their contemporaries and future Irish nationalists alike. Newspapers and Newsmakers establishes that what was written in the Dublin nationalist press during the mid-nineteenth century had a powerful and enduring influence on the development of Irish nationalism.Trade ReviewReviews 'An original contribution to the historiography of Irish nationalism and press history in Ireland.'

Liverpool University Press The Voice of the Provinces: The Regional Press in
Book SynopsisIreland’s regional newspapers were among the first to record the turbulent events that took place in the country between 1914 and 1921. But who were the personalities behind these papers and what was their background? Did they remain as impassive bystanders while dramatic developments unfolded or were they willing or unwilling participants? What were the difficulties they faced when reporting such formative and sometimes violent events? This book addresses these questions and provides a comprehensive portrayal of the regional press across the entire island at that time. The origins of Ireland’s contemporary provincial newspapers, both nationalist and unionist, as well as independent, are examined and those who ran such publications are profiled. Additionally, the manner in which many of these titles reacted to events during these years is scrutinised and analysed. How did they respond to the Easter Rising? Did they foresee the rise of Sinn Féin? Did they approve of the Anglo-Irish Treaty of 1921? This was a time when regional newspapers risked censorship, suppression, possible closure, and ultimately violent attack. This book records their experiences and charts the history of Ireland’s regional press during the tumultuous and violent years leading up to independence.Trade Review‘A very wide gap in the historiography of Irish newspapers has been filled with the publication of ‘The Voice of the Provinces’.’ Paul Murphy, Meath Chronicle‘[A] masterly survey…there are invaluable insights on virtually every page of this absorbing exploration of Irish journalism and society into one of the most tumultuous periods of our political and newspaper history.’ John HorganReviews ‘Given their centrality to Irish political life in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, it is remarkable that the only comprehensive survey of local newspapers between the Famine and independence, Newspapers and nationalism: the Irish provincial press, 1850-1892, was published twenty years ago by the late Marie-Louise Legg. Christopher Doughan’s painstaking study of the regional press during the revolutionary period is therefore long overdue. Scrutinising seventeen different titles across all four provinces he provides a valuable account of the ownership and editorial positions of local newspapers during the decade of upheaval that began with the First World War. Not only does he extend the range of established titles that Legg studied, he also takes in a new burst of vitality in the regional press since, several papers were launched in the decade following the fall of Parnell.’ Maurice Walsh, Dublin Review of Books‘A welcome inclusion in this book is the set of appendices, which comprise valuable factsheets on regional newspapers for historians of the revolutionary period. […] The data assembled and tabulated by Doughan will be referenced by historians of Ireland’s revolutionary period for years to come, as indeed will this work as a whole.’ Paul Hughes, Irish Historical Studies Table of ContentsIntroductionChapter 1 – Provincial newspapers: politics and censorshipChapter 2 – The Pale and beyond: LeinsterChapter 3 – West of the Shannon: ConnachtChapter 4 – Southern exposure: MunsterChapter 5 – Northern drumbeats: UlsterConclusionBibliography

Liverpool University Press 'Miserable Conflict and Confusion': The Irish
Book SynopsisThis book investigates the way the British national press covered Ireland and the ‘Irish question’ from the aftermath of the Easter Rising in 1916 to the ratification of the Anglo-Irish Treaty in 1922. Bridging the fields of history and media studies, it seeks to add to our understanding of the complex relationship between the press and politics. Using a case study of 11 newspapers, Erin Kate Scheopner investigates daily press coverage from the formative 1916-22 period to offer broader contextualisation and critical analysis of what the press, the reading public, and the government recognised to be happening in Ireland. The material examined includes articles, dedicated series, editorials, cartoons, letters to the editor, and reports from outside journalists and foreign press outlets. This research confirms that the British national press were not neutral bystanders in the Irish question debate but were active participants, helping to shape and influence the course of events that led to the signing of the Anglo-Irish Treaty.Trade Review'Providing a unique insight into the interaction between media and politics at a crucial period of Irish history, this book demonstrates the key role of the press in shaping and interpreting the events that shaped the destiny of a nation. Based on extensive original research, it provides a nuanced appreciation of the press as a player in, and an observer of, the world of politics as the demand for Irish independence grew in intensity.'-Mark O'Brien, Associate Professor of Journalism History, Dublin City University'This well-researched and intriguing study offers the first detailed examination of how the British people and government came around to offering a home rule scheme in 1921 that in many ways far exceeded what they were willing to grant just a few years earlier.

Liverpool University Press Figurations of the Feminine in the Early French
Book SynopsisAn Open Access edition of this book is available on the Liverpool University Press website and through Knowledge Unlatched.In this original study, Siobhán McIlvanney examines the beginnings of the women’s press in France. Figurations of the Feminine is the first work in English to assess the most significant publications which make up this diverse, yet critically neglected, medium. It traces the evolving representations of womanhood that appear over the first ninety years of women’s journals in France. McIlvanney’s insightful readings demonstrate that these journals are often characterised by a remarkable degree of ‘feminist’ content. This refutes the general conception of the women’s press as an idealised, hyper-feminised space inhabited by the intellectually idle – whether in the form of readers or writers – disseminating and legitimating a limited range of patriarchal stereotypes and idées reçues. Through textual analyses of different ‘generic’ subsections, whether the literary journal, the fashion magazine, the domestic press or more explicitly politicised outputs, Figurations of the Feminine challenges the critical commonplaces which have been applied to the women’s press since its genesis, both in France and elsewhere. It demonstrates the political richness of this medium and the privileged perspectives it gives us on female self-expression and on the everyday lives of French women from across the class spectrum during this key historical period.Trade Review‘A theoretically sophisticated history of the early female press in France, Figurations of the Feminine fills an important gap in French literary studies and gender history. This book offers the first comprehensive history of the women’s press in France in the politically turbulent years from 1758 to 1848. Siobhán McIlvanney’s deeply researched study will engage scholars across a range of fields and will inspire them to think in fresh ways about the complexity of gender construction in the popular press, and the potential for women’s agency and consciousness through the liberating act of reading.’ Jennifer M. Jones, Department of History, Rutgers University‘Early French women’s journals were about so much more than fashion. Not only do they provide today’s reader with valuable insights into the cultural backgrounds of their writers and readers, but they were also a key means of promoting women’s emancipation at the time. And this is what Siobhán McIlvanney’s excellent book is all about.’ Dr Annemarie Kleinert, Author of Le Journal des dames et des modes ou la conquête de l’Europe féminine (1797-1839)'An engaging and valuable contribution to the field of early French women’s history.' Professor Joyce Dixon-Fyle, DePauw University‘The book splendidly debunks assumptions about early women’s press…For anyone interested in media, communication, representation politics, and feminism, this constitutes a captivating account of an overlooked literary genre, also providing a model for studies in other places or times.’Hélène B. Ducros, Europe Now'This thoroughly researched monograph, deeply grounded in historical documentation, sheds light on a little-studied literary genre that could be considered ‘as more pivotal to the proliferation of Enlightenment ideas…than more “heavyweight” literary and philosophical texts’. It will appeal to scholars and students of French history, French education, early modern women and gender studies.' Anne R. Larsen, French History‘[McIlvanney] bridges a significant gap in scholarship by synthesizing a rich array of previous work on specific authors, periodicals, and historical contexts in a finely crafted comparative study subtended by strong theoretical readings of the ways in which the women’s press, consisting for the most part of women journalists, gave voice to the concerns of their gender.’Mary Rice-DeFosse, Modern Language Review'A rich contribution to the history of French women and their press, this book will undoubtedly generate dialogue among scholars interested in the history and role of women in French print culture.' Cheryl Morgan, French Studies‘Figurations of the Feminine is a detailed, solidly useful contribution to women’s history as well as cultural studies, spanning the end of the Ancien Regime through the rise of the Second Republic. Highly recommended.’ Kate M. Bonin, French Review 'Figurations of the Feminine is a beautifully written, rigorously researched study, an absolute must-read for anyone interested in the history of journalism, feminism, and women's writing in general.'Hope Christiansen, Dalhousie French Studies‘McIlvanney’s primary research, mostly conducted in the archives at the Bibliothèque Nationale and Bibliothèque de l’Arsenal in Paris, demonstrates thorough and meticulous attention to the details of the journals both as material objects and as written and illustrated texts in society… the book is a tremendous resource for scholars of French periodicals or women’s journalism in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.’ Tonya J.

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Hate Speech in den Massenmedien: Theoretische
Book SynopsisHate Speech ist ein bisher in der Medienwissenschaft vernachlässigter Forschungsgegenstand, dem sowohl eine ausreichende Abgrenzung als auch eine kohärente theoretische Fundierung fehlt. Das Buch schließt diese Lücke und analysiert anhand der Kontroversen um Oriana Fallaci und Thilo Sarrazin, wie Massenmedien zur Bühne für Hate Speech werden und wie sich Argumentationsprozesse hierbei auswirken. Die Untersuchung in den führenden Qualitätszeitungen Deutschlands, Italiens, Spaniens, Großbritanniens und der USA zeigt, dass Hate Speech in den Massenmedien ein rationales Phänomen ist und eine argumentative Auseinandersetzung mit den diskriminierenden Botschaften dazu führt, deren Diskursqualität zu erhöhen und sie kommunikativ zu legitimieren. Die Leistung der Hate Speaker ist es dabei nicht, etwas zuvor Unausgesprochenes oder Unaussprechliches zu thematisieren oder einen diesbezüglichen Konsens herzustellen, sondern die öffentliche Agenda zu bestimmen. Trade Review“… Das Buch, das die Veröffentlichung ihrer Habilitationsschrift ist, gibt einen sehr fundierten Überblick zum Stand der akademischen Diskussion zum Thema „Hass-Kommunikation“ und verweist auf viele interessante theoretische Aspekte des zeitgenössischen Journalismus … Für Forschung und Lehre liefert die Analyse gutes Material für Auseinandersetzungen mit Populismus, Diskriminierung und Medienwirkungen … Für weitere Auseinandersetzungen mit Hass-Diskursen und aktuellen, teils irrationalen Debatten bietet das Buch eine sehr gute Basis.” (Dr. Uwe Breitenborn, in: tv diskurs, Jg. 22, Heft 4, 2018)Table of ContentsKontroversen, ihre Mediendynamik und Legitimität.- Hate Speech und die kommunikative Herstellung menschlicher Ungleichwertigkeit.- Fallstudie 1: Oriana Fallaci.- Fallstudie 2: Thilo Sarrazin.

Einerseits hat der Medienwandel neue Möglichkeiten zur politischen Partizipation und Interaktion hervorgebracht. Andererseits werden digitale Phänomene wie Fake News oder Hassrede von politischen Akteuren instrumentalisiert, um strategische Ziele durchzusetzen.

Book SynopsisSusanne Merkle beschäftigt sich in einem komparativen Forschungsansatz mit dem politischen Journalismus in Deutschland und Frankreich. Vor dem Hintergrund der länderspezifischen Kontextfaktoren des Pressejournalismus untersucht sie in einer quantitativen Inhaltsanalyse die Muster journalistischer Darstellung und Meinungsäußerung in deutschen und französischen Qualitätszeitungen zur Debatte um das Freihandelsabkommen TTIP. Im Zusammenhang mit den Entstehungsbedingungen der Berichterstattung im deutschen und französischen Mediensystem deuten die Ergebnisse darauf hin, dass der Journalismus beider Länder trotz gewisser Konvergenzen nach wie vor durch national-spezifische und historisch gewachsene Journalismusverständnisse geprägt ist.Table of ContentsKontext und Bedingungen des Pressejournalismus in Deutschland und Frankreich.- Makroebene: Bedingungen auf Systemebene.- Mesoebene: Ökonomische und publizistische Rahmenbedingungen.- Mikroebene: Journalisten als Berufsgruppe und Individuen.- Die TTIP-Berichterstattung im deutsch-französischen Vergleich: Gemeinsamkeiten und Unterschiede .- Meinungsäußerungen im Vergleich: Positionen, Argumente und Bewertungen in Berichterstattung und Kommentierung.

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Demokratie braucht Medien
Book SynopsisFreie und unabhängige Medien sind die Grundlage einer lebendigen Demokratie. In normativen Demokratiemodellen wird die „Wächterrolle“ von Medien betont, weil neben der Kontroll- und Informationsfunktion der Medien ihr Beitrag zur Legitimierung politischer Prozesse als zentral angesehen wird. Medien unterliegen jedoch im digitalen Wandel einem hohen Anpassungsdruck: Sie drohen ihre traditionelle Gatekeeper-Rolle zu verlieren und konkurrieren mit globalen Tech-Giganten wie Facebook und Google um Werbegelder und die Aufmerksamkeit des Publikums. Die Plattformisierung der Medien stellt nicht nur die Vermittlungsleistungen professioneller journalistischer Informationsanbieter in Frage, sondern auch die Rolle der Medien in der Herstellung von Öffentlichkeit. Der Band hinterfragt die sich wandelnde Rolle der Medien im politischen System sowie das Verhältnis von Medien und Politik kritisch. Funktionen und Autonomiegrad von Medien und Journalismus werden analysiert. Mithilfe von Zeitvergleichen werden tiefgreifende Veränderungen wie auch Konstanten herausgearbeitet. Nicht zuletzt gilt es zu erörtern, welche Akteure welche Verantwortung tragen und welche Privilegien sie genießen (sollten).Table of ContentsWarum die Demokratie die Medien braucht.- Ein Stück des Weges gemeinsam…“ Persönliche Erinnerungen und Reflexionen zur Rolle von Gabriele Melischek und Josef Seethaler bei der Institutionalisierung der Kommunikationswissenschaft an der ÖAW.- Lebens- und Arbeitsbedingungen von Journalisten im internationalen Vergleich.

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Bundesdeutsche Presseberichterstattung um Flucht
Book SynopsisBilder in der Presseberichterstattung nehmen Einfluss auf die Deutungs- und Wahrnehmungsmuster von Migration. Dadurch sind sie, die Bilder, Teil von gesellschaftlichen Aushandlungsprozessen über Migration. Über Pressebilder versichern sich Gesellschaften ihrer aktuellen Verfasstheit, sodass sie als Teil von Selbstverständigungsprozessen verstanden werden müssen. Aus dieser Perspektive widmet sich die Untersuchung Bildmotiven, die im Zeitraum der späten 1950er bis frühen 1990er Jahre in der Presseberichterstattung über ‚Flucht‘ und ‚Asyl‘ veröffentlicht wurden und leistet so einen Beitrag zum Verständnis der Bundesrepublik als Migrationsgesellschaft in historischer Perspektive.Trade Review“... Insgesamt gelingt es Lisa-Katharina Weimar hervorragend, sowohl die großen Linien der Visualisierung von Flucht und Flüchtlingen über vier Jahrzehnte in der Bundesrepublik herauszuarbeiten als auch das Wirken der Bilder in spezifischen Verwendungszusammenhängen durch oftmals bestechende Einzelanalysen sichtbar zu machen …” (Stephan Scholz, in: H-Soz-Kult, hsozkult.de, 18.

Book SynopsisDer Online-Journalismus hat dem Nachrichtenschreiben neues Leben eingehaucht. Mobile User verlangen nach schneller und präziser Information, die Platz auf einem kleinen Bildschirm findet. Erfolgreiche Content-Produzenten erinnern sich darum an die „umgekehrte Pyramide“, an Nachrichtenfaktoren und W-Fragen. Sie wissen, wann man Präsens, Perfekt und Imperfekt einsetzt und wie das mit den Konjunktiven funktioniert. Und natürlich haben Sie eine Ahnung davon, wie ein Online-Teaser verfasst werden muss, um Reichweite zu erzeugen.Modernes Nachrichtenschreiben bedeutet aber nicht nur, die um digitale Aspekte erweiterten klassischen Regeln beherrschen und anwenden zu können. Es geht darum, diese Regeln weiterzuentwickeln – und auch einmal lustvoll über den Haufen zu werfen. Mut zu mehr Lebendigkeit und zum professionellen Anderssein wird zum Qualitätsmerkmal. So machen Nachrichten wieder Spaß: beim Schreiben und beim Lesen.Table of ContentsEinleitung.- Der 45-Minuten-Crashkurs zum Nachrichtenschreiben.- Der professionelle Regelbruch.- Schluss.

Springer Fachmedien Wiesbaden Menschenrechte und das Islambild in der deutschen
Book SynopsisPolitische Berichte und menschenrechtliche Debatten prägen das Islambild in Deutschland mit. Die vorliegende Forschungsarbeit setzt sich exemplarisch mit der Menschenrechtsberichterstattung der politischen Fraktionen im Deutschen Bundestag über muslimisch geprägte Länder auseinander. Im Zentrum des Interesses stehen dabei die Fragen, wie die Menschenrechtslage in muslimisch geprägten Ländern dargestellt und welcher menschenrechtliche Bezugsrahmen verwendet wird sowie, welche Rolle die Religion Islam bei der Berichterstattung spielt. Hierzu werden die diskurstheoretische Perspektive Foucaults (1981) und der forschungsmethodische Zugang der Kritischen Diskursanalyse Jägers (2015) herangezogen. Ziel der Forschung ist, exemplarische Erkenntnisse über potenzielle gesamtgesellschaftliche Auswirkungen der Berichterstattung – insbesondere auf das Islambild in Deutschland – zu erhalten. Daher untersucht die Arbeit, wie bei der Berichterstattung Wirklichkeit konstruiert wird.Table of ContentsTEIL I: Einführung und theoretische Grundlagen.- TEIL II: Empirische Untersuchung: Politischer Diskursstrang zur Menschenrechtslage in muslimisch geprägten Ländern.- TEIL III: Theoretische und empirische Zusammenführung.
