The political media's declining power - 0 views

    • alex bock
       
      Information comes from a pew report.
    • alex bock
       
      Article is from 2013.
  • 1. Technology has enabled candidates/campaigns to more effectively end-run the mainstream media. President Obama's campaign team has used everything from his Twitter feed to the images that official White House photographer Pete Souza sends out via Flickr to sell their preferred image of the nation's chief executive to the country. That is an image not filtered through the media in any way, shape or form.

      This demonstrates a change is what media our political system is depending upon.
  • Here's a look
    • alex bock
       
      Purpose of the article is to inform readers on the changing relation of dependence of politics on the media.
  • Estimates for newspaper newsroom cutbacks in 2012 put the industry down 30 percent since its peak in 2000 and below 40,000 full-time professional employees for the first time since 1978," according to the Pew report. With fewer reporters and more to cover -- thanks to the endless churn of social media, cable television and so on and so forth -- the tendency to do a sort of paint-by-numbers reporting takes over.

      media affects children at a young age already whether we know it or not
  • Mass media gives indicators to young people about what is considered “normal” and “not-normal,”
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      media gives the youth a distorted image of what they should look like which makes them want to be something that they are not
  • When [journalists] report what is normal, they also make an implicit statement about what is abnormal.
  • Low income families spend more money on television programming than on hobbies, and young people in these homes watch far more hours of television than those of higher income homes where more money is spent on hobbies.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      that's actually an interesting fact because i had no idea about this
  • The more exposure to unrealistic violence in media (e.g. games, television, movies), the higher the likelihood for aggression or violence in young people.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      more youth that sees violence tends to portray this violence in real life whether it be starting fights or getting involved in gangs
  • for every four violence acts on prime time television, 32 violent acts occur on children’s programs every hour."
  • As many aggressive teens are perhaps labeled as anti-social or defiant, these music/music video choices can help them identify with a social group.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      music gives youth something to start up a conversation and find friends since they have a common interest
  • intensive or excessive [media] viewing can affect a child’s brain and the development of creativity and intelligence by: a) reducing stimulation of parts of the brain that are critical for the development of language, reading and analytic thinking, b) diminishing mental ability and attention, and c) discouraging the development of executive systems needed for regulating attention organization and motivation.
    • Adrianna Czerlonko
       
      i think that kids who don't do anything besides watching tv or sitting inside have the childhood that once used to be when there was no tv. they lack social skills and fitness
  • All research has room for error, and should be read knowing that there are always exceptions.
  • Social media and online gaming groups do not necessarily produce a false sense of friendship.

Lesson 1: The Media and Democracy: Theory and History - 0 views

  • This introductory lesson has two components: a brief discussion of the critical role the media play in a democracy such as that we have in the United States and a history of the development of the news media in the United States, including a discussion of why the government has regulated the print media differently from the broadcast media.
  • The news media play a critical role in the American democracy. The press has always been present, and it has a privilege no other industry enjoys: a specific protection in the Constitution
  • The press is simultaneously blamed and praised for many aspects of American political life. On the one hand, it is accused of a wide array of offenses: endangering national security, oversimplifying important issues of public policy, focusing too much on the negatives and not enough on the achievements of government, and demonstrating some sort of political bias.

  • Television is the most influential medium in American society and has been for many years.
  • Americans perceive television primarily as an entertainment medium, but many Americans also depend on it as a source of information about many issues, including politics.
  • In 2004, the American National Election Study found that 86 percent of people said they followed the 2004 presidential campaign on television.
  • Television is perceived as more credible than print, according to studies by Journalism.org, the Pew Research Center, and others, and this is probably due to the visual nature of the medium. However, the same reports show that trust in both local television and national networks has steadily declined (as has trust in all media sources).
  • Reporters seem to be automatically suspicious of the motives of elected officials and politicians running for office.
  • Politicians believe that the time, money, and energy they devote to press relations will pay off in the form of reelection or support for their policy proposals.
  • While the public relies on the news media as a source of information about politics, politicians also depend on the press, both in elections and in governing.
  • Since the 1970s, Americans have become much more likely to identify themselves as independents rather than as Democrats or Republicans. The weakening of the political parties has made it possible for more individuals to run for office without spending years paying their dues in the parties. But it has also affected the ability of the parties to speak effectively to voters and mobilize them at election time.
  • As a result of the weakening of the political parties, candidates have to cultivate their own relationships with voters, and the way they do that is through the mass media.
  • In the early days of the nation, the press was blatantly partisan, as it still is in many other democratic countries.
  • Theodore Roosevelt, our first truly media-savvy president, tried to use the reporters who covered the White House for his own benefit. He gave them access that they hadn't previously enjoyed, but he also threatened to take away that access if their reporting displeased him.
  • Elected officials and candidates for office need to get their views out to the voting public, and the members of the press see their job as screening those views for truth. The result is that the press and politicians have very different imperatives that clash with each other dramaticall
  • The Kennedy-Nixon presidential debates of 1960 were another important series of events in the emergence of television as a political medium.
  • Today, thanks to the development of cable and satellite technology, television provides a twenty-four-hour forum of political news and information.
  • The equal time rule originated in the Radio Act of 1927, and it can also be found in Section 315 of the Communications Act of 1934. It requires that stations provide all political candidates the opportunity to appear. If a station sells or gives advertising time to one candidate, it must offer the same opportunity to the other candidates in that race.

5 Ways New Media Are Changing Politics - US News - 0 views

    The outrage was immediate: The Supreme Court decision that struck down restrictions on the use of corporate funds in political advertising, Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, is "devastating to the public interest" (President Obama) and a "disastrous rollback" of campaign finance laws (MoveOn.Org) and promises a "windfall" (New York Times) of big-money television ad buys by groups like the U.S.

    Without mass media, openness and accountability are impossible in contemporary democracies. Nevertheless, mass media can hinder political transparency as well as help it. Politicians and political operatives can simulate the political virtues of transparency through rhetorical and media manipulation. Television tends to convert coverage of law and politics into forms of entertainment for mass consumption, and television serves as fertile ground for a self-proliferating culture of scandal.
