  • The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary
    Media History Monographs 12:1 (2010) ISSN 1940-8862 The Edward R. Murrow of Docudramas and Documentary By Lawrence N. Strout Mississippi State University Three major TV and film productions about Edward R. Murrow‟s life are the subject of this research: Murrow, HBO, 1986; Edward R. Murrow: This Reporter, PBS, 1990; and Good Night, and Good Luck, Warner Brothers, 2005. Murrow has frequently been referred to as the “father” of broadcast journalism. So, studying the “documentation” of his life in an attempt to ascertain its historical role in supporting, challenging, and/or adding to the collective memory and mythology surrounding him is important. Research on the docudramas and documentary suggests the depiction that provided the least amount of context regarding Murrow‟s life (Good Night) may be the most available for viewing (DVD). Therefore, Good Night might ultimately contribute to this generation (and the next) having a more narrow and skewed memory of Murrow. And, Good Night even seems to add (if that is possible) to Murrow‟s already “larger than life” mythological image. ©2010 Lawrence N. Strout Media History Monographs 12:1 Strout: Edward R.

    Turning the Camera on Court TV: Does Televising Trials Teach Us Anything About the Real Law? ANGELIQUE M. PAUL* I. INTRODUCTION What people think about the law is important because ours is a "public opinion" society, "which makes heavy use of referenda, and in which government does not lift a finger or move a muscle without reading the tea leaves of public desire."' The public's perception of justice influences the courts, the laws, the judges, and essentially the democratic process. So what influences the public's perception of justice? Television. For the majority of Americans, television is the most important source of information, and for many it is the only source of information. 2 This is particularly true when it comes to gathering information about the law. Because the majority of Americans have had no personal experience with the legal system,3 and because the majority of Americans get their information about the world solely from television, 4 the portrayal of justice on television is extremely important not only to the continued viability of the legal system, but also to the individual's understanding of that system. Studies indicate that the * The author would like to thank her parents, David and Lynda Paul, for their unconditional love and support. I David A.

  • Moving Towards Prevention: a Guide for Reframing Sexual Violence
    Moving toward prevention A guide for reframing sexual violence Moving toward prevention A guide for reframing sexual violence Preface Have you ever felt lost trying to explain your work in preventing sexual violence — or even explaining that sexual violence can be prevented? I know I have. Even when I was confident about my own messages, I also know the overwhelming feeling of looking into the eyes of my audience and seeing their uncertainty, confusion, and skepticism. When I began my journey at the National Sexual Violence Resource Center, I often felt lost when navigating how to communicate about prevention. But after reading the guide you are holding now, I feel empowered to embrace these conversations and enthusiastic to share this tool with you. Although I had joined our team with over a decade of experience working in public health including sexual health promotion, I found the complicated jargon, acronyms, and language experts use in talking about sexual violence prevention to be a challenging barrier. It wasn’t that I didn’t understand prevention. The underlying idea of primary prevention — stopping sexual violence before it starts — was easy for me to understand. In fact, I found it inspiring. The vision that we can work to build safer communities, organizations, and institutions where safety and respect are the norm is what motivated me to join this field in the first place. But it was difficult to share this vision with others when the language that field experts use is miles away from how everyday people and the general public talk about this issue.

I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job.

Price, President of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. The awards recognize outstanding achievement by individuals and programs broadcast during the 2002 calendar year. The News and Documentary Emmy Awards will be presented at a black-tie dinner and ceremony on Wednesday evening, September 3, 2003 at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City. “This year’s nominations illustrate the excellent work currently being done in the field of news & documentary,” said Price. “The hard news nominees showcase remarkable reporting on such diverse topics as international terrorism, airport security, the Israeli- Palestinian conflict, the arrest of the D.C. snipers, the brutal conflict in the Congo, and the rescue of the Pennsylvania miners.
