    Mount Rushmore: The Rise of Talk Radio and Its Impact on Politics and Public Policy Brian Asher Rosenwald Wynnewood, PA Master of Arts, University of Virginia, 2009 Bachelor of Arts, University of Pennsylvania, 2006 A Dissertation presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of History University of Virginia August, 2015 !1 © Copyright 2015 by Brian Asher Rosenwald All Rights Reserved August 2015 !2 Acknowledgements I am deeply indebted to the many people without whom this project would not have been possible. First, a huge thank you to the more than two hundred and twenty five people from the radio and political worlds who graciously took time from their busy schedules to answer my questions. Some of them put up with repeated follow ups and nagging emails as I tried to develop an understanding of the business and its political implications. They allowed me to keep most things on the record, and provided me with an understanding that simply would not have been possible without their participation. When I began this project, I never imagined that I would interview anywhere near this many people, but now, almost five years later, I cannot imagine the project without the information gleaned from these invaluable interviews. I have been fortunate enough to receive fellowships from the Fox Leadership Program at the University of Pennsylvania and the Corcoran Department of History at the University of Virginia, which made it far easier to complete this dissertation. I am grateful to be a part of the Fox family, both because of the great work that the program does, but also because of the terrific people who work at Fox.

Journalism is facing many crises, not the least of which is a loss of readership and perceived relevance to its public. Presented with an ever-expanding array of media with which to interact, the public is more difficult to attract to a socially relevant issue or a politically important story.

  • “En El Pancracio Ardiente”: Lucha Y Poesía, La Ilusión De Los Hechos
    “En el pancracio ardiente”: lucha y poesía, la ilusión de los hechos Alejandro Palma Castro Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla Resumen: En este artículo estudio la relación entre poesía y el pancracio (antecedente de la lucha libre) remontándome a los inicios de la lírica coral griega de Píndaro (s. V a. C.) y sus odas a los vencedores en los juegos olímpicos. Destaco cuatro artificios fundamentales para comprender dichos poemas que a la postre constituyeron los rasgos discursivos de la lírica contemporánea. Esto me permite establecer la relación actual entre la poesía mexicana contemporánea y la lucha libre, dos prácticas culturales que dependen de la misma poética para lograr una ilusión de los hechos en el “pancracio ardiente”. Palabras clave: Píndaro – Epinicio – Poesía mexicana contemporánea – Lucha libre – Enunciación de la lírica. rino, co-creador junto con JIS de la historieta mexicana El Santos, particulariza a la lucha libre, hacia el final del documental Nuestra lucha libre (2018), como una entidad de “magia y fantasía” frente a los aficionados T donde impera la noción de un teatro: “la lucha libre tiene que ser falsa pero hermosamente falsa y que creas en ella” (“Mas allá del ring”, 00:28:30-00:28:47). Este espectáculo de trascendencia mundial y materia exportable hacia otros ámbitos culturales como el cine, las series animadas, la música, etc., se ha vuelto, al cabo de varias décadas, un rasgo identitario mexicano. Más allá del deporte o el espectáculo, la lucha libre ha pasado, desde la década de los cincuenta del siglo XX, por el tamiz de una intelectualidad que trata de comprender e interpretar su sentido en el mundo contemporáneo.1 Contundente, Emmanuel Carballo describe en qué consiste parte de esa identificación singular: 1 Me refiero a textos como “El mundo del catch” publicado en Mitologías (1957) por Roland Barthes, “Deporte y violencia” (1986) de Norbert Elias, “La hora de la máscara protagónica.
