Sino-Greek Relations in Greek and Chinese Media, 2020
‘ Sino-Greek Relations in Greek and Chinese Media, 2020 Plamen Tonchev Research Associates: Pavlos Petidis, Yuliana Porja, Yannis Yannopoulos March 2021 FOREWORD The Institute of International Economic Relations (IIER) has carried out systematic research into Sino-Greek relations in recent years, including in-depth studies of ‘Chinese Investment in Greece and the Big Picture of Sino-Greek Relations’ (2017) and ‘China’s Image in Greece, 2008-2018’. Since 2016, the institute has regularly contributed chapters on Greece to the annual reports released by the European Think-tank Network on China (ETNC). This report is yet another step forward in enriching IIER’s China expertise. What is qualitatively new about this specific research is the comparative analysis of Greek and Chinese media in 2020 and early 2021. It is hoped that the report will contribute to a growing body of international literature on the crucial role of media in shaping perceptions and, in particular, the way China projects its narratives as foreign policy tools. The study is based on a mix of: (i) quantitative media monitoring within a representative sample of influential Greek print media outlets, while several TV channels are also covered by the research; (ii) a qualitative appraisal of Greece-related themes presented by major Chinese media; (iii) comparative analysis of media coverage of the two countries and their relations by Greek and Chinese media. After an extensive review of data on both sides, the team dove beneath the surface for possible explanations of the trends identified. The research methodology is presented in the Annex. While writing this report, the authors have identified areas for further research into the specific audience targeted by Chinese media in Greece or appropriate metrics that could help capture the effectiveness of China’s policies in the media sector. -
The Content and Language of Newspaper Articles Related to the Official Ban on Smoking in Greece
The Open Applied Linguistics Journal, 2011, 4, 1-8 1 Open Access The Content and Language of Newspaper Articles Related to the Official Ban on Smoking in Greece Ioannis Galantomos1, Georgia Andreou*,2 and Konstantinos Gourgoulianis3 1Department of Mediterranean Studies, 1 Dimokratias str. 85100, Rhodes, University of the Aegean, Greece 2Department of Special Education, Argonafton & Filellinon, 38221, Volos, University of Thessaly, Greece 3Department of Respiratory Medicine, School of Medicine, New Buildings, Mezourlo, 41110, Larissa, University of Thessaly, Greece Abstract: This study aims to investigate the content and language of newspaper articles referring to the start of the offi- cial ban on smoking in Greece in July 2009. Given that smoking in Greece is generally taken to be a social and acceptable habit, despite its undeniable negative impact on health, Greek government launched an extensive anti-smoking campaign. Newspapers played a crucial role in conveying anti-smoking messages and keeping public opinion informed. Having in mind that language as a code expresses and reflects social values and beliefs and news is full of these values, we con- ducted a survey in order to study the major themes and language devices used in newspaper articles before and after the implementation of the new anti-smoking legislation. Our search yielded 196 articles, which were classified according to their dominant theme into 13 categories. From our analysis, it was concluded that, on the occasion of the ban on smoking, there was full coverage of all the main issues related to tobacco use. Moreover, the language features found varied de- pending on the identified dominant theme. -

In the absence of strong criticism, selected clergy, journalists, and politicians have brought their extreme views into mainstream discussion, the effect of which seeds anti-Semitic views within the larger Greek population. Manifestation of anti-Semitism in Reporting and Commentary on the Middle East Crisis Anti-Israeli sentiment regarding the ongoing Israeli/Palestinian conflict and perceived threats to the Greek Orthodox Christian culture, continue to fuel the majority of anti-Semitic comments and incidents reported in the Greek media. -

Athens News Agency 5.05.14
Monday, 5 May 2014 Issue No: 4648 PM Samaras: Greece is breaking its chains with the past Prime Minister Antonis Samaras has said in an article published in Sunday’s edition “To Vima” newspaper that a new Greece is emerging by breaking its "shell" and its chains with the past. The premier refers to inherent problems of the past which kept Greece back to “old-fashioned mentalities and distortions, which maintained a false growth on borrowed money,” adding that a “shell” had been obstructing the country to move forward. ”This shell is now breaking. And the country and people’s great abilities are being released,” the premier stresses, launching an attack on those forces which, as he puts it, are still fiercely resisting because they do not want Greece to move ahead to the future. Samaras said that the main opposition SYRIZA party wanted Greece to return to the crisis that is now being left behind, and to see the country in an instable condition, internationally isolated and divided. The premier charged SYRIZA of making efforts to exert ideological terrorism and divide the society, as “they are trying to ethically castigate as ‘extreme right’ or ‘neo-liberal’ all views which are opposed to theirs.” NERIT broadcaster starting programme as of 18:00 on Sunday The New Greek Radio, Internet and Television (NERIT) broadcaster started its programme as of 18:00 on Sunday with a new news bulletin, a Greek and a foreign film and a sports programme. According to NERIT's president, about 11 months after the closure of the ERT broadcaster and the transitional Public Television channel the countdown will begin shortly before 18:00 with a "modest ceremony". -
