"Narrowcasting" - Obama and Islam, right wing Fox News directed... - 0 views

  •  
    This video is a good example of right wing narrowcasting. It is obvious that this is directed to Fox News viewers. Not all Fox News viewer would agree with the statements made on this video. This is more focused to anti-Islam and anti-Obama supporters. The language used by the newscaster is very specific and persuasive. It is generalizing and directly connecting Islam with terrorism. Here is an example: "Islamic killers are the central problem on this planet." In my opinion these are radical ideas themselves. It shows some evidence and pictures relating Obama with Islam. These are there to tie Obama to the negativeness that the newscaster has already said about Islam. We can see that this is an example of narrowcasting because this will not appeal to most people. It will most likely appeal to a certain group of people which this video was made for.

    As we know, freedom of speech is an example of a Civil Right. Many countries do not allow bias media to be published, or if they do allow it, it is usually for their own benefit. This video and some ideas expressed could be offensive to some people and many would not like it (me.) But this is one of the beauties of this country. I could respond to this video with something bias on my side without a consequence from the other party that will endanger my security. Sometimes the picture could get dirty or might not be pretty, but at the end of the day it is something we should be grateful for, civil rights.

"Broadcasting" - 9/11 LIVE NEWS REPORT - 1 views

  •  
    This video is an example of "broadcasting." This has less of personal opinions and it is more factual. This means that it appeals to a wider audience (which is the definition for it.) This CNN video shows the second plane hitting the WTC in New York during 9/11. This is something that most people will listen. Why? Because it is factual rather than bias. I think that current events fall more in the broadcasting rather than the narrowcasting. The aftermath of these could fall into narrowcasting. An example of this is the previous video I posted on Obama and Islam. Please comment if you have any other thoughts on this.

Announcing the Surrender of Japan (September 1, 1945)-Miller Center - 0 views

  •  
    I could not find a video. This is a Transcript of President Harry S. Truman's opening speech before a conference in San Francisco announcing the surrender of japan, and focusing on Truman's acceptance of a peace treaty that officially ended America's Occupation in Japan after WWII. It was a pivotal moment in American Broadcasting . It was the first transcontinental television broadcast. Meaning it was the first time a television program was broadcast from coast to coast.

  • he planed to hold a meeting with the entire state legislature next week.
  • has doubled as a proxy fight over whether Republicans can push through spending cuts and confront organized labor - and live to tell about it.
  • I believe that in November voters across the country will demonstrate that they want the same in Washington, D.C.,
  • exit polls showed Barrett winning handily among union households, while Walker dominated among Tea Party voters. Walker also won by 9 points among independents. The polls showed Walker winning with men and those making more than $50,000, and Barrett winning among women and those making less than $50,000 per year.
  • candidates and outside groups spent in excess of $63 million on the recall election
  • Walker and his Republican allies spent $45.6 million on the race as of May 21, while Barrett and his allies have spent $17.9 million.
  • estimated 2.8 million people expected to cast ballots.
  • The Walker campaign said in response to the reports that "any accusation that our campaign is making those calls is categorically false and unfounded."
  • exit polls found that 52 percent of voters in Wisconsin approve of how Walker has handled the issue of collective bargaining, and 54 percent approve of how he has handled job creation. Fifty-two percent said they approved of the recent changes to state law that limits collective bargaining for government workers, while 47 percent disapproved of these changes.
  • The Romney campaign said the former Massachusetts governor called Walker to congratulate him Tuesday evening.

  • Republicans called the race a test of whether they can push through the difficult reforms needed to deal with massive federal, state and local budget deficits.
  • exit polls found that Mr. Obama led Romney 51 percent to 44 percent among voters in the recall election.
  • The power of Wisconsin's progressive, grassroots tradition was clearly on display throughout the run up to this election and we will continue to work together to ensure a brighter future for Wisconsin's middle class.
  • Walker's victory suggests that the newly-legal unlimited spending by super PACs and other outside groups - which was unleashed by a pair of recent Supreme Court decisions, including Citizens United

  • In a fourth state Senate recall election, Republicans were leading. If Democrats were able to triumph in any of the state senate elections, they would win a majority in the Wisconsin Senate and be able to block Walker's agenda even though he remains in office.

    This is a news article concerning the attempted recall of Wisconsin governor Scott Walker. This article contrasts the idea that every legislative race, no matter how big or small, reflects politics on a national level. In this particular race, it is notable that parties argued as to wether or not this race was any indication as to the potential outcome of 2012 general elections, and whether or not it might have been possible for Mitt Romney to win the state of Wisconsin from Obama. Noted, the article makes reference to exit polls that indicated Obamas advantage in the state.

    A summary of what happened during the election and the actions Walker took when faced with the recall.
  •  
    With a dominant 54%, Walker handily retained the governors office.
  •  
    This article seems to favor Walker but gives the general idea of why he survived the recall
  •  
    Walker wins recall this is important because republicans have said this was a test for walker and his political career, while on the other hand even though democrat president Obama won Wisconsin in 2008 earlier with a point lead.

For Republicans, a shift to national security ahead of 2016 | Reuters - 1 views

  • The shift reflects a changing political landscape as the U.S. economy has steadily added jobs while gruesome beheading videos by Islamic State and increasing conflict in countries such as Syria and Libya have revived Americans' concerns about security threats.
  • "Because of the Obama-Clinton foreign policy, our allies no longer trust us and our enemies no longer fear us,"
  • "Let's recognize that 2016 could be the first foreign policy national election since 1980. The world seems to become more dangerous by the day,"
  •  
    This article shows how the national security policies can have an effect and the politics and even on the elections.
  •  
    It also shows that a lot of people disagree with the national security policies and want a change.
  •  
    This article shows multiple viewpoints, but it's overall theme is that the foreign policy is old and outdated and must be reformed to match today's standards else conflict will arise
